XNA Chess Game Demo

Demo of an XNA chess playing program I'm working on. This uses custom shaders and shadows using the depth map method. A ways through the video I start resetting the board to view some of the other textures. The chess engine can parse well formed PGN stored games and was ported from a Java project I started a couple of years ago.

@MaceGuitar Funny, i just made a chess set and was searching for a way to add my pieces into a game like Chessmaster, but unfortunatly i have no programming skills.

Very nice. I'm also working with XNA to produce a chess based game - however it's hard to find quality chess models as in your demo. You've done a brilliant job, I only hope my application turns out as good.

Nice textures and shadows. I could imagine a person playing this program and having the advantage of rotating the board and seeing the board from different angles.
