I'm very pleased to announce that the CPT 5 manual is finally available for download. It is a much extended version of the CPT 4 manual. In total it contains 104 pages full of information.

Nowadays, quite a few manuals just describe the function and buttons of the program. The CPT 5 manual is a true labour of love and in some regards done in the good old fashioned way. Beside describing all features in detail it goes beyond this. A Common Task and FAQ section covers typical scenarios and questions, which reflect my knowledge and experience of 10 year CPT user support.

Right now I'm evaluating different options for integrating a forum again. This has been a quite popular request in the past.

The idea is to provide CPT users a place to help each other and share best practice.Is there any (chess) forum out there, which you really like (feel free to post a link)? Why?Any forum technology, which you really like?What would you like to see in a forum on this site? Just topics related to CPT or maybe some 'other' chess topics as well?The forum is not supposed to substitute the support system. This will remain for me the most efficient way to keep track of issues and feature requests.

I’m very happy to finally announce that Chess Position Trainer 5 has been released and is ready for download.I will update the web-site soon. The manual has been not updated yet. In the meantime, please check the comprehensive tooltips in the program as they have been updated / added already.I also recommend to check the ExampleDatabase in the application folder (if no CPT version was installed in the past it will be automatically loaded otherwise you have to load it manually) as it comes with 500 tactic positions and an example how to organization a repertoire.(UPDATED)Bug reports and suggestions are both very welcome! However, please use the. It makes it much easier for me to follow-up and keeping an overview.

Thanks!UPDATE 3:CPT 5.03 fixes the GoTo position of type X (leaf node, 1 candidate moves etc.). Some more minor fixes.UPDATE 2:CPT 5.02 fixes all issues reported here or through submitted tickets. In particular training of topics/tabiyas should work now.UPDATE:Unlike CPT 4, if CPT 5 checks for a newer version it will claim there is one.

It is not (I don't want to inform all CPT 4 users yet). Once the last ToDo's are done I will update the version checker.All CPT 4 Pro License owners will receive an email with additional and a special offer (depending on the original purchase order).CPT 5 is a free upgrade for all CPT 4 Pro license owners.

The program will show your name as normal, but with a note 'expired'. That just means future updates won't run with your license, but the current version does and all updates I will bring out till the typical erros of a new release are fixed.Yours,Stefan. Since the release of CPT 4 this has been the most requested feature. Actually, CPT 3 already supported tabiyas to manage and train tactical or end game positions. The main reason I removed it from the initial release of CPT 4 was the way tabiyas were managed in CPT 3.

They were just named positions, which were loosely coupled with the rest of a repertoire database.I had a vision how it should be done properly. I’m right now in the final stage of implementing this last big feature for the CPT 4.2 release and I would like to give you a preview of what I believe will be a really great enhancement of CPT and much better than it was done in CPT 3.First of all, let’s start with a screenshot:In CPT 4.2 you can add a new repertoire element, which is called ‘topic’. A topic can contain any type of positions. Usually it won’t be the start position or opening. Instead you probably will create a topic an opening to manage key positions (or positions you frequently forget). You could also create another repertoire just to manage tabiyas like end games (with different themes) or mate in 2 positions etc.If you load a topic the first tabiya is shown.

Then you can easily navigate through all tabiyas of the topic, add new ones or delete some. And of course you can train it!You can see how topics perfectly fit into the comprehensive and unique repertoire concept of CPT. Folders will further help you to organize topics. The fact that you can have several repertoires for a single database makes it very easy to manage all training material.This new feature will also allow chess teachers to create more complete and innovative training units for their pupils.This is the very last new feature I’m right now finalizing. The release of version 4.2 took more time than originally planned, but we are now really close to the finish and about 100 new features, bug fixes and improvements have been implemented. It will be released before x-mas and it is a free upgrade for all Pro license owners!
