Animation engine for chess game

The project is for a server-side animation engine to postion chess pieces and output a graphic of the board with the pieces positioned after each move. The engine would require an API of sorts for an external application to position the pieces. It is not necessary at this stage to display the movements, but just to render the resulting board after the pieces have been positioned. Our graphics are in 3DS Max. The play of the game and the graphic design are not a part of this tender. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
