Scorpio 2.7.7

[Krzysztof Grzelak]

I have a request to those who know each other. How to configure the ini file in the engine Scorpion 2.2.7. Thanks for any advice in advance.

Hi,

in my download file to my FCP Rating List (around 311 MB) you can find all engine configurations (to the 56 engines I am using for my FCP Rating List).

To your message:
I saw that I have an old link to Crafty JA, Scorpio JA, Nemo JA on my site. Also the Tornado link don't work again. Glaurung site isn't longer available, unfortunately. I corrected my link selection for minutes.

Here you can find the 311 MB file:

Here you can find the link to the TOP-56 from my FCP Rating List:

Best
Frank

PS: Only the Tornado 5.0 link I missed ...

A better address to find all the information to engines sites and much other interesting material (much better as my small link selection):
http://computer-chess.org/doku.php?id=c ... ngine_list

I am using my link selection as small information only ... this programs I am using for my FCP Rating List ... not more not less.

Thank you very much Graham and Frank. Graham I still have some questions.

1. how to configure the engine Scoprio so as to operate under the table base Scorpio
2. whether it is able to use the table base Scorion 6 man
3. what may be the largest number of cache using the table base.

Jim Abblet compilation has the option in console "help" and offers help about commands.

With regard to using the six-piece EGBB have to look at the code perhaps is not set, it seems that it is only up to 5 parts... I'm not sure.

With the cache to write "protover" we see rising up to 16 gigabytes.
protover:
feature option="egbb_cache_size -spin 16 1 16384"

Write Graham as you know how to set these parameters and how to check and set the table base Scorpio 5 men in the program Chess Gui.

# egbb_path F:/egbb/
# egbb_cache_size 128
# egbb_load_type 0

I have problems when using Scorpio egbbs, so I disable them.

Thank you for your answer Graham. Tomorrow I'll send private information to the author Chess Gui asking why this is a problem.

I doubt that it's a ChessGUI problem.
