DC Studio 0.2.0

Databases

  • One window per PGN file, tabbed. Open files come back on launch, each on the game you were looking at. A file is opened once; opening it again brings its tab forward. Only the front tab's engine runs.
  • Copy games between tabs (right-click ▸ Copy to). Duplicates — same start position, same main line — are skipped.
  • A file changed by another program while open is flagged: Reload or Keep Mine.
  • Filter the list by result, date range and Elo; Result and Black Elo sort.

Analysis

  • Analyze Game (⌥⌘A): marks the losing moves ?! ? ??, writes what the eval did, inserts the engine's line beside each. Both sides or one; main line or every variation. One undo step.

Notation and paper

  • Figurines (♘f3) on screen and in print; Game ▸ Figurine Notation to switch.
  • Diagrams (⌘D), stored as $220 so they round-trip through ChessBase.
  • Print Game (⌘P) and Export as PDF.
  • Merge Selected Games: several games into one tree, comments included.
  • Null moves (--) in analysis PGNs now parse, replay and save.

Reference

  • Opening statistics from lichess: Masters, Lichess (rating band and speeds of your choosing) and Player (a lichess username's own games). Needs your own lichess API token — one click from the panel's ⚙ — kept in the Keychain.
  • Novelty: a move the chosen book has never seen is called out, with a button to write the N mark.

Fixed

  • The sample fixture carried an illegal move; replaced with six classics.

Apple Silicon Mac, macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later.

Download DC-Studio-0.2.0-arm64.dmg, open it, drag DC Studio into Applications.

The build is ad-hoc signed but not notarized, so the first launch is
blocked with Apple could not verify "DC Studio" is free of malware…
That dialog offers no way to continue — dismiss it without letting it move the
app to the trash, then either run

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/DC Studio.app"

or open System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway
next to the message about DC Studio.
