Moreover there is new download 'release.zip' at Tony Mokonens new site since today, which contains
a program called Montego - need to check first what it is though...
Well, that is no standard chess engine.
It plays something I don't even know, looks like checkers on a 5x5 board ;-)

Maybe Tony tells something about it here, because he is the author himself.

Hi Guenther, Norbert,

It's a little board game I invented. The object of the game is to stalemate your opponent. White (X) has pieces that move one square up or to the right to an empty square, and Black (O) has pieces that move one square down or left to an empty square. You stumbled across an old version of my program that I forgot I even uploaded to my account. It has a very rudimentary AI that plays a number of random games for each legal move, and picks the move with the most wins. It's a very basic version of monte carlo, and eventually I was going to add MCTS to this program.

Sylvain had obviously success with Monik Mac OS version and CuteChess.
"J'ai fait quelques corrections. J'ai testé avec Cutechess sur Mac et ça fonctionne bien maintenant."

The package of https://github.com/slacombe/monik/archi ... -2-2-6.zip contains since today a Macintosh compile.
Lisez-moi is a text document with the author´s email-address.

I created 32 and 64 bit Windows compiles for Monik 2.2.6 and placed them here:

http://tonyschess.x10host.com/Monik2.2.6TM.rar

I had to make a slight change to get it to compile for 32 bits. I replaced

Code: Select all

int TempsCenti();
long inter();
with

Code: Select all

#ifdef _WIN32
long TempsCenti();
int inter();
#else
int TempsCenti();
long inter();
#endif
in the file system.h

The actual name of my app is Deep Chess.
The GUI of my app communicates via moves validation module with chess engine using UCI protocol.

Hi Norbert Raimund Leisner,

Sorry but I cannot reply to your private message, because I cannot send private messages. You can find the answer of you question above.
It will be very nice if you add my app in the page you mentioned(http://computer-chess.org/doku.php?id=c ... ngine_list)
Regards
Lachezar

Hello,

what is your opinion about KanaBagatur https://github.com/bagaturchess/KanaBag ... ess-Engine (Java, derivative of CuckooChess)?
A Java executable file is missing there.

I am not able to install it on my 2 android devices.

I have Moto z2 force Android 8.0.0
And pocophone f1 with 8.1.0
And after manually trying to install the 4.1+ version, the 8+ version it says I have an uncompatible device,
I cannot install the 4.1 version. Downloaded and unzipped the file.

Android stops installing them right in the install process.

I visited your web site. You claim your engine uses AI for chess. You mean neural networks leela approach with Monte Carlo search or which strategy is your engine using ?

You explain Alpha Beta and minimax and Evaluation in numbers but you remain silent about your own engine.
What seems like a fairy tale today may be reality tomorrow.
Here we have a fairy tale of the day after tomorrow....
