DreamChess is an open source chess game. DreamChess features 3D OpenGL graphics and provides various chess board sets, ranging from classic wooden to flat figurines.
The share folder resides on the appdata folder. It should be possible to add boards. To have music download and install the music pack form here: http://www.dreamchess.org/downloads.html. Install the ogg files to this folder: appdata/dreamchess/share/.dreamchess/music/matt_smith
Controls:
* B, accept option / choose piece.
* X, back option / bring menu during play.
* Y, hold it and use dpad to rotate board.
* Dpad, navigate menues / move selector on the board.
The chess engine Crafty 23.0 is bundled in the package. Just replace dreamer for crafty in dreamchess configuration (there is a openings book and a config file in /appdata/dreamchess/bin for fine tuning Crafty). Crafty was developed by Dr. Robert M. Hyatt with contributions from other devs too.
Special thanks to:
Lunixbochs, for his awesome LibGL, for providing a compiled new version and for testing.
Mcobit, for his kind advice on Pacifi3d (that came to fruition here).
PtitSeb, for his awesome Codeblocks pnd.

Don't know how good dreamer is and I can barely move the pieces. But in this site there are some reasonable tests methods: http://www.computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/. At least Dreamer appears in the 40 moves in 4 minutes ranking.
