Anyone have "My go coach" software?

Post by CarlJung »

The description of "Go Board Game Go Program - My Go Coach NEW in English!!" sounds very similar to "Go Elementary Training and Dan Level Testing". I suspect they are the same, or at least share the same problems.

Does anyone have it and can test if my sgf converter tool works with this program too?

If they are the same then (what is quite likely) who need a converter tool?

I don't trust it at all, most of the price is in download costs.

I don't mean to convert between the two programs, that would be unnecessary indeed. But I'm interested in knowing if my existing sgf converter tool also works on this "My go coach" software.

About "The Magic of Sacrificing Stones New!!", perhaps you mean the kgs client instead of Drago? It's the kgs client in these pictures. In this case, what he is selling is the sgf files, not the program. I assume he just choose his favourite sgf editor to show how the sgfs look.

I have the program but I doubt I have the computer skills to try using some conversion program. (I am still trying to figure out how to use Drago after many attempts.)

If there is an easy way to capture and post screenshots from Windows I could probably do that, and someone could compare them to the other program. But I would need instructions on how to do it.

Here's how "Go Elementary Training and Dan Level Testing" looks like, does "My go coach" look like this too?

Looks like an identical interface, including the face floating over the Goban, except that in My Go Coach a few of the words are in Chinese (the rest are in English). I guess it must be the same program.

That's just to reduce the amount given to ebay I think.

"Go Elementary Training and Dan Level Testing" looks nice.

Maybe I should download it for free :)

So they are willing to cheat ebay.
Are you sure they don't cheat you?

You can ofcourse never be sure. That goes for any seller. But take a look at goplayer2006's customer feedback and it's clear that he has a lot of happy customers.
