Summary
Chessmaster 6000 was the last good version of the Chessmaster series. The brand seems to be changing hands all the time, and the program gets worse and worse. The features keep getting changed in a user-unfriendly way, and the program became extremely unstable. "Set up position" feature gets knocked out after a while, and so do custom personalities. Don't buy this garbage, buy Fritz instead! Just $10 more, but you will be getting the best chess software around.

Developer’s Description

By UbiSoft Entertainment

Upgrade your copy of Chessmaster 8000 to version 1.04.

Version 1.0.4 addresses one bug caused by v1.0.3: Fixes a bug that could corrupt tournaments. All tournaments created with v1.0.3 should be deleted, as attempting to load them with v1.0.4 could likely cause Chessmaster to crash. However, this crash is not harmful to your Chessmaster installation. Deleting all tournaments created since installing the v1.0.3 patch is all that is needed to avoid this crash. Tournaments created with any version other than v1.0.3 should load properly.
