Date Added: 1 Jan 2010

Please note that the sole purpose of this version is to give you a first impression of how the final version of CPT 4 will look and feel like. This version is by no means feature complete (e.g. the complete training module is missing) nor is the performance yet optimized. It will crash on you on several occasions, but it won't harm your system. Still, it should be good enough to give you a first overview of what you can expect in CPT 4.

Most important: You can’t use any data entered with this version in the final CPT 4 version! This is a technical preview version and therefore will be different from the final version. Also you can expect to encounter more technical problems than you are used to from CPT 3.3.

Requisitions:
You need to run the application as administrator or you will encounter some errors whenever you close the application as it tries to store configuration files in the application folder. Win7 (64bit) users will have to run the app as WinXP 32bit application, but this should happen automatically.

Any feedback welcome!

Nice work Stefan! I am glad to see development is still underway on CPT. I am a professional software developer myself with an interest in chess. Drop me a line if you would like me to help you with CPT.

I dont know if there is another way to post bugs, so i will start posting here 1) Create a new Rep 2) Right click on the Rep and Edit. Just press Ok. An error fires. 3) The same goes if you try to create a New one Another one is with candidate ordering. It seems to work , but it does not update (you have to move back and forth to see it) and that makes it hard to follow

Thanks for your feedbacks! Please send any error messages via email or post them in the forum. Here it's difficult to read for me and for others a little bit distracting from the download. However, I really appreciate bug reports, so please use one of the other options. Thanks! P.S.: CB I have removed your comment, because the layout got messed-up, but I copied it for my notes!

Thanks for the continous determination to deliver this project. I'm one of the million fans of CPT. :) I know development will take a lot of your time and energy and yet your doing it pro-bono. Good job man!

Brilliant work! I can't believe you are doing all of this work pro-bono. When version 4 is finally released, for my purposes it will be the most useful training software of all (I use chessbase frequently but this can do a lot that chessbase can't do).

Hi Stephen! I am from Bangladesh. I am very much interested to use your CPT 4. And I will be more than happy if you please make the version as a complete software package- where we do not have to download any additional software/support files. "Just Install and Use" formula- will it be possible to have in the coming version, dear?
