How to use another engine with MzingaViewer? #103

Closed edre closed 3 years ago

edre commented 3 years ago

I found a menu to tweak engine options, but not a place to choose a different engine.

jonthysell commented 3 years ago

Under the Viewer Config, there's an Engine option to choose engine for the Viewer.

Internal is just Mzinga's engine, External let's you put in the command-line to execute another engine.

I'm using the linux viewer, and I don't see an External option.

It's under Viewer Options, under the Engine tab.

Select "Use UHP Engine" and put in the command line to start the engine. Then restart the viewer.

What engine are you trying to use?

Aaaah, I was only looking under the Engine menu. I found it in the viewer tab. Now I can start implementing a UHP server for my engine.
