I am assuming that you used Rodent III 0.172, which is the last official version from Pawel. I am not certain if it has the elephantiasis correction. And if it does, the constant is hardwired and would probably be 4. So the correction in this case would be 28cp.hgm wrote:This doesn't seem to work. I just played Rodent III against Stockfish 8, and they seem to agree that the score of the initial position is around +8 for the Queens.Adam Hair wrote:Pawel has an elephantiasis correction for the queen in Rodent III:

The default value of the constant is 4, which may be too low for this situation. I used 60 in the game above, though I have no idea if that was a good value.
I am using version 0.176, whose source I grabbed from github. I changed the constant to a parameter that I could access via "setoption".
