Error Drawing Pieces #56

Closed grafton-legare closed 1 year ago

grafton-legare commented 1 year ago

I just installed the game for the first time (5/5/23), and when I start a new game, it never draws the pieces in row 8, i.e. black's non-pawn pieces. It also never draws those pieces as the game continues. Note, I am on Windows 11 currently. image_2023-05-05_155738231

You have a black background and black pieces per default get drawn in a black color onto the screen (the same problem exists with white pieces, see issue linked). Try to use the --checkered/-c option which enables drawing a chess-field behind the pieces or change the color of the black pieces through --black/-b. This should be enough contrast then to see the black pieces.
