BabasChess Downloads
Featured Download:
Gorgonian's Graphics - this installation package contains 5 of the cleanest, clearest, standard chess fonts for BabasChess and several of the most popular board textures. It also includes all of the board color combination files that were featured on the front page blog (these will have the SC prefix) and 7 different textures that can be applied to your chess pieces. This is a self-installing MSI file that will automatically put all of the graphic files in the proper place. Just download and run the file.
BabasChess Piece Fonts
Note: I highly recommend installing a program called "MacType," which changes how Windows renders fonts to make all vector pieces look crisp and clear.

Tips and Tricks
- Reduce BabasChess CPU usage: If you don't use the seek graph, you should definitely disable it because it runs in the background and adds 5-10% on my CPU usage even when it's not showing and nothing is happening in the program. In preferences (shortcut: F11), go to "Info Window" and click the "Tabs" section. Un-check everything except "Friends" (other tabs are probably also using CPU--I didn't test exactly which tabs use the most. Just disable what you don't use, which is probably most of them).
