Hi, I’m using scid for mac. It runs native, I can connect directly with my DGT bleutooth board on Mac and when having a large chess DB, it is defintly a nice tool to play and analyse chess games.
it is not the same as chessbase but on the other hand, it is for free and good alternative for mac - in my believe worth to give it a try!
Hi all,
I'm starting to research into chess engines & GUIs to run training and analyse games etc.
To be frank, I've picked up some odds and ends, but I'm lost. There are so many options and the websites for many of the products are a little disappointing!!
I'm on a mac, and would love to run something natively on it - for example, shredder - but I keep hearing about Chessbase and Fritz - which I could run on a Windows virtual machine.
Just looking for any tips or advice that people might be able to give me on how to get started and what they would recommend.
