Choosing

You can download either the plain or the antialiased piece sets. The actual pieces in them are the same - the difference is how they are rendered. Plain piece sets will have jagged edges while antialiased will have smooth edges. On the flip side, the antialiased piece sets may draw slower.
IMPORTANT: You cannot use the antialiased piece sets under Windows if you run Jin with Microsoft VM. Read the readme.txt file for further information.

Downloading

• Plain pieces
• Antialiased pieces

Installing

The zip file you download contains more zip files inside it. You do not need to unzip the inner files. To install, you put all the inner zip files into:

• Under Windows: [jin-directory]\resources\pieces\ where [jin-directory] is the directory into which you installed Jin, typically C:\Program Files\Jin
• Under Unix/Linux: Either ~/.jin/resources/pieces/ or [jin-directory]/resources/pieces/
• Under Mac OS X: /users/username/.jin/resources/pieces/ where username is your account username on your computer (not the chess server username). To locate the folder, launch a new Finder window, and from the Go menu find the Go to Folder command. Then type:
  ~/.jin
  Important:
  • The .jin folder in /users/username is a hidden folder.
  • You will need to create the resources/pieces folder yourself. Make sure it's capitalized correctly (all lowercase).

Using

Once you've successfully installed the pieces, restart any running instances of Jin. You should then be able to select the new piece sets from the Preferences->Chess Board menu.

If you're having any problems, post a message on Jin's help forum.
