Off-topic Forum Chess Thread / Regarding Forum Chess |

|
The rules of forum-based chess at these forums are the same as |
|
the rules for normal chess |
|
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_of_chess. |
|
The rules for four-handed chess |
|
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-handed_chess |
|
are also as it |
|
says on the page. - Taylor |
|
The notation used in chess can be read up on at Wikipedia |
|
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_chess_notation, |
|
although |
|
I will add a thread here with the chess rules and chess |
|
notation, to make things a bit more easier. |

I think I missed something, I'm not sure. :-\ |
|
I also need someone to help out with the "sprites" for the chess |
|
units. |
|
1 King (Black, White, Red, Blue) |
|
1 Queen (Black, White, Red, Blue) |
|
2 Bishops (Black, White, Red, Blue) |
|
2 Rooks (Black, White, Red, Blue) |
|
2 Knights (Black, White, Red, Blue) |
|
8 Pawns (Black, White, Red, Blue) |

How big would the sprites have to be, and from which |
|
perspective? Up, or side? |

Well, if I have to guess, each square is about 50x50 pixels, if |
|
the chessboard is 400x400 pixels. |
|
So I'd say each sprite should be about 40x40 pixels. |
|
But that's Shane's decision. |
|
As for perspective, I'd say that up would be best. |
|
Again, that's Shane's decision. |

40x40 pixels, with the up perspective. |
|
Just as Taylor said. :P |
|
As there are six chess pieces, and four colors (black, white, |
|
red, blue), that equals 24 sprites. |
|
Yes, four-player chess exists. :P |

I'm betting anyone can participate, otherwise why would we all |

Anyone can join in, if they want to. :) |
|
First post updated. The first chessboard needed those letters |
|
and numbers, for, say, "Rook to A6" or "Queen to D4". |
