For the short time control, the base time was 6 seconds + 0.1 seconds per move.


I mean, what interface are you using to assign assymmetrical time controls? LittleBlitzer can't do this. Or, how Don assigns fixed, but different nodes and depths? I managed to get fixed, different depths only in Fritz and Aquarium.

For asymmetric time controls, I use Winboard.

For fix nodes and depths, I suppose I could use Winboard. However, I have been using Arena and InBetween.


If I understood correctly, you are using Arena with InBetween, I don't see another way with Arena. Could you post the InBetween.ini files for Arena with the cases: double number of nodes, 1 ply more and double the time? Also, maybe you will show what command-line calls one has to make (for example, with Houdini under Arena).

Thanks,

Kai


I will assume you know how to set up fixed depth and fixed nodes tournaments in Arena. For ply testing, set up a folder for each number of plies you plan to test. Copy the engine you are using into each folder along with InBetween.exe and InBetween.ini. Change the name of InBetween.exe to represent the engine and number of plies and then install it in Arena as if it were an engine. Modify the following line in InBeTween.ini:

; clientword := serverword

to

sd x := sd y (Winboard engine)
or
go depth x := go depth y (UCI engine)

where x equals the fixed depth Arena is set to send and y equals the depth you want that copy of the engine to play. It is similar for nodes testing.

For time odds, I use Winboard. If you use the latest Winboard with the built-in tournament manager, then set up the tournament with your base time control. Then, you have to modify winboard.ini (found at C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data in Windows XP). For each engine in your tournament, add -firstTimeOdds=x, so that1/x times the base time control equals the time control that particular engine will play with. If you use PSWBTM as the tournament manager, then you have to add /%sTimeOdds=x (where x is the same as above) for each engine's parameter in the PSWBTM Engine Manager.
