VinczeSwiss - changelog

 Date  Version  Build 
 16.4.2024   1.13 
  • optional tiebreak "direct encounter(s)" is now available also for non-chess tournaments
  • until now, the "bye" (for a free player, if there are an odd number of players in the tournament) has always been a win - now it is possible configure "bye" as win or as lost
  • report for team competitions: if you enter a TeamID for each player in the individual tournament, the new report will calculate the ranking of the teams based on the sum of the points of the best N players
  • bug fix: in the list of games to be played (Report - Round ...) sometimes the line "bye" was not until the end of the list
 1.13.010 
 10.9.2023   1.12 
  • bug fix: import FRL (FIDE rating list) has been reprogrammed - the new function for conversion XML file to TXT file has drastically less memory requirements (but function is slower), so the conversion should no longer stop due to the "out of memory" error (on computers with insufficient RAM)
