Edit: Also, Hectochess doesn't have the 3d Queen, Marshall, and Cardinal for some reason...

Indeed, I noticed that too. I did upload a newer fairy-sprites file, and that made the Champion and Wizard appear.

[Edit] OK, that should be fixed now too. Hectochess was using the proper-*.js files for these 3d pieces, which differ from the original ones by a scale factor, to give them a more natural size. But these were not present on CVP.

[Edit2] I now moved a lot of the new 3d pieces to the CVP Jocly install as well. I had never payed much attention to the version here as far as updates go, because the CloudFlare caching made it pracically impossible to see any changes. But now that Fergus has exempted Jocly from this, it makes sense to bring the version here up to date as well. Makromachy already works. For Minjiku Shogi some of the promoted pieces seem to be still missing.
