The idea for this page is to post custom graphics, game files, and other stuff for Qianhong. Contributions are welcome.


Custom Graphics

To use these in the game, save them your PC under the Graphics subdirectory and then load them with the "Change Board" dialog [F5]. (Click on the "Qianhong Files" icon in the Qianhong start menu program group to find the Graphics subdirectory.)

File Author Description
Rosa_theme.zip Sebastien Rosa This is a complete theme for Qianhong, containing board, pieces, and color scheme. Very stylish! See an example in the gallery. Qianhong currently doesn't support importing color schemes from files, so you have to set up the color scheme by hand. Sorry...
Western.gif Jim Reynolds A traditional-style piece set for western players.
English.gif Thomas Bryner A custom piece set using English letters.

Game Files

To view these WXF game files, save them to your PC and then load them with the Qianhong viewer. (Qianhong creates a default "Games" directory in your Qianhong installation directory for storing these files. To find the Qianhong installation directory, click on the "Qianhong Files" icon in the Qianhong start menu program group.)
