HI! Board calibration works just fine, but when it comes to starting the game the programs abruptly interrupts, and I get the same error message another user got before me, in the closed issues section (#17).
Is there a solution to this?
Many thanks in advance

Edit: apparently it is sufficient to create the file 'constant.bin' in the folder, and everything works properly

Can this app simply write to PGN instead of playing online?

This happens once I either run main.py or start from the GUI.

Anyone knows what this is about?

Would you accept a PR to implement this?

Very cool project, congrats.

Unfortunately it currently breaks the lichess terms of service. Indeed, programmatic usage of the GUI is strictly forbideen. See https://lichess.org/page/fair-play

The great news is that we have an API to do the same thing legally! See:

• Board API announcement
• API doc
• Example implementation
• Live demo

Please replace the programmatic GUI mouse clicks with API calls, to avoid users of this project from being banned from lichess.

This should be made into an iOS or Android app (that uses the phone camera) without necesssitating the use of a computer. Just connect the phone and play!

Hello,
I've installed the code on an Raspi Zero with Bullseye and it looks good so far. I'm able to scan the board, but if I try to start the game, I got an error (see below)
Do you know, how to solve this issue?
I run python (3.9.2) with sudo in an virtual environment - all libraries are installed...

Traceback (most recent call last):

Displays the message: "The Lichess API does not allow you to play this game". The game starts but does not recognize the movement of the pieces on the board.

Plz make option for 2 player Real board option without playing online. So that I can use PGN Online

Hello,
Is it possible to add an option for (Human vs. Human) game? I want to play on real board and after that I want to analyze the game.
please add this option then users can play chess on their chess boards like DGT e-boards!
thanks a lot for your awesome project.

Hi Karayaman,

Thank you for the great program. I am trying to play through this. It is good option to avoid screen and play with real chess board!

One input - I used Droidcam to use mobile camera. But one problem is that the board calibration program uses only the default camera. For now, I disabled the windows camera and the program identified the Droidcam. It would be good if you have option to set the camera for using.

Thanks,
Srivatsan

Hi.
I have this problem. Can you give me a hand to solve?

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'pendule' defined in URL [jar:file:/home/xxxxxxx/Descargas/webcamChess.jar!/game/chess/graphics/Pendule.class]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Could not instantiate bean class [game.chess.graphics.Pendule]: Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException
Thanks!

I'm having difficulty selecting the webcam. In the gui.py it does have a selector but is only showing 'default' and I am attempting to use a virtual cam client so I can use my phone to point to the board (droidcam on win10) but it not allowing this. If there is any input on this I would appreciate it.

See screenshot, getting error constants.bin not preset.

Hi, feel free to contribute voice support in your native language. It should be really easy to code and fun to see it working. You can take my commit for French voice support as reference:

Hello, I'm on an old mac with Sierra, I've installed it once but due an accident i deleted the virtualenv.
Can you tell me wich version of python are you using anf which version of the package requirements?
Thanks in advance.

It displays the error that only one game can be played at a time. He asks me to close the other open games. But there is only one game at that time.

Is it possible to extract moves made? I want to send them to robot to move chess pieces

Ich arbeite auf Windows 11 und das Programm findet cv2 nicht. Wo finde ich cv2?

Sometimes the program should be a bit more talkative, assuming the player doesn't look at the screen.

• In case there is an error message or the game is interrupted, it should be told to the player
• If the opponent's move couldn't be recognized, the expected move should be said aloud again (in case the player didn't hear or misunderstood it for any reason)
