We added another one (the one I find quite interesting) after Jesse sent this, but we haven't finalized the name yet.Nordlandia wrote:Jesse Gersenson

Re: To Larry Kaufman
Interesting for sure.
By the way if it is true K9.4 exceling at blitz this time, it theory it may be enhanced further in case running with ponder!

Re: To Larry Kaufman
Larry, one small request: all parameter names should start with Uppercase. Therefore it should be 'Suppress'.
Also, it should be 'Use LMR' and not 'Use Lmr' as 'LMR' is acronym, just as 'UCI' is.

An option to use contempt only when white? If so I have a good feeling about this new feature.Jesse Gersenson wrote:Here is the output of 'uci', the ones in bold are (I think) new:Nordlandia wrote:New parameters to adjust in 9.4?

Re: To Larry Kaufman
I was thinking for the rating lists. Some believe a small amount of contempt with white, and no contempt with black is best.Nordlandia wrote:For example in case Odds/Handicap setups!?Leto wrote:An option to use contempt only when white? If so I have a good feeling about this new feature.

Re: To Larry Kaufman
I wouldn't say it excels in blitz, it's just been improved at all levels.

Re: To Larry Kaufman
The improvements should help at all levels, but we can only verify this at blitz, it would take too long to run thousands of slow games.
