Shredder 9 - Chessmaster Gauntlet - Rounds 1 and 2 - (60+15)

Chessmaster 10th Edition
This is a list of many of the known CMX settings.  (Top settings are in red)

This is an example of a WB2UCI setup.

This patch disables the OPK check that makes it hard to use Chessmaster outside of its own interface.

This is a Zip file with instructions and several examples to help you use Chessmaster 9000 or 10th Edition using Inbetween and Bookthinker.  A custom book by Guenther Simon is included.
Here is the Readme that will help you with the above file.

Another way of using Chessmaster under winboard, would be to use Polyglot UCI2WB converter.  That method would be easier for management of  the settings, and there would be more opening books to chose from.
