This is on behalf of my cousin who has purchased fritz 14. He wants to know how he can get two engines to play against each other from a set up position of his making to review the end result. Can any one help? I do not possess any computer chess engines

Set the position you want, then keep pressing "space" key of your keyboard. I dont know about Fritz 14 but I make this in Fritz 11. Pressing "space" key, the moves will be made by engine till the end of the game.



Another way, you need to have the position you want in pgn file, easy to make with Fritz. Then go to Engine Match option, select the engines, the time...



and load your position.

Thanks for that. I sent copies of your instructions but he reports that when he loads the pgn file and makes sure he's at the position he wants and then goes to engines, with all the option you suggested. It starts a fresh game as though it is playing against two engines from scratch.

That pgn must contain only the position he wants, not the whole game.
