ChessJam 3.5 Released!

We just posted ChessJam 3.5 for download. Your existing version should auto-update.
Here's what new:

• The application is now 53% smaller resulting in faster downloads, updates and faster startup time.
  
• There should be fewer disconnects throughout the application now.
  
• Network traffic has been reduced throughout the application.
  
• Automatic draw detection added (finally!). If both players don't have the required pieces to checkmate, a draw is automatic. If a position arises in which neither player could possibly give checkmate by a series of legal moves, the game is an automatic draw. Combinations with insufficient material to checkmate are:
  
  
  
  • king versus king
    
  • king and bishop versus king
    
  • king and knight versus king
    
  • king and bishop versus king and bishop with the bishops on the same color.
    
  
  
• Turbo tournaments now auto-start more consistently.
  
• The end-game dialog is now clearer with a button for "Get a link to this game".
  
• Numerous other bug fixes, performance tweaks and cosmetic improvements.
  

We're working on a major new release - stay tuned!
