Philou 3.1.2 acting strangely

Post by Graham Banks »

No problems with previous versions, but 3.1.2 seems to move quickly at low depths too frequently for it to be normal behaviour (ponder off under ChessGUI). Results are understandably poor as a consequence.
Have others noticed this?

Cheers,
Graham.

Hi :-)

I don't test Philou with ChessGUI, but i have no problem under arena or Winboard ??

Can you send me the games.

Have a good day :)

No problems under Arena 1.1 Graham....must be a communicaton protocol issue related to ChessGUI....

The problem is perhaps not time management.

Hi :-)

I don't test Philou with ChessGUI, but i have no problem under arena or Winboard ??

Can you send me the games.

Have a good day :)
Hi Philippe,

I'll send you some debug files today.

Cheers,
Graham.

Hi :-)

It's very strange, i have made 100 games with Philou 3.1.2 under ChessGui 0.179, and i have no problem here !!

I try to change something, and i will send you :-)

Have a nice day :-)
