Qalat WB chess engine

Post by mineola »

This is a link for Qalat WB chess engine. This engine comes bundled with Winboard X (Spanish Version). Winboard X, Spanish Version, download size is 60Meg. I downloaded Winboard X(Espanol) and extracted the engine and posted it to the link above. I put this post because I did not find this engine at WBEC. The engine d/l is 372k. all the best, Joe Louvier

Qalat is very interesting.

The download is way too big and the downside of that may be way too long. I think most should wait until you have made the download of a reasonable size so that they may check that first beforehand, rather than to do something that they might regret.

It is always nice to hear about something new, but what you present is in the wrong format.

Could you help us with something a little more palatable please?

It would be nice if you could.

I think what Christopher is trying to say is don't download anything without checking it for viruses first. Just some friendly advice.

As a sidenote, the Winboard forum got hacked yesterday. This is what Olivier had to say:
Yesterday the Winboard Forum has been hacked.
As a result, Profile and Register options were unavailable. Now all is back to normal hopefully. In case you notice any issue, please report it.
The source of the attack has been localized. The hacker is from India.

People should check all downloads for viruses first as a matter of precaution. It's a matter of commonsense.
I didn't actually state that your download contained one.

Cheers, Graham.

Qalat is a private engine.
If the engine is Qalat, I guess that it may be released without the author's permission.

What did you download Evgenii? The 60 meg thing or just the other?

Does it play? Does it play with Arena?

:D
