After we have a uci of the famous Sargon 1978, what about the SciSys Mark V (worldchampion of Travemünde 1981) by David Broughton and Mark Taylor?
http://www.chesscomputeruk.com/html/che ... story.html
Can a pc run a programm of the authors?
Maybe Cyrus 68K ?
https://www.chessprogramming.org/Cyrus_68K
Or a emulated rom of the SciSys MARK V?
A uci version of this legend would be a dream to analyze old games.
Exist a posibility to play against MK V (1981 computerworldchampion) on PC?

Would be nice to see mkvi, that was transferred as emulation, into uci.
Also cyrus 68000, the successor on better hardware.
Those b strategy programs are interesting to play against.

Hi,
you can use more than 250 old chess computer programs (also MK V) with CB-Emu_Pro from my website:
https://fhub.jimdofree.com/
It also includes a special version 'MessChess' which allows to run all those programs in any
chess GUI which supports the WB or UCI protocol (e.g. WinBoard, Arena, Hiarcs, Shredder, ...)
Regards,
Franz

I'd just like to make a comment here: For those unfamiliar with Franz's work, it really is incredible.
You can play (almost) all the old dedicated machines and they feel like the original units.
Outstanding work.

Re: Exist a posibility to play against MK V (1981 computerworldchampion) on PC?
What an incredible project, many thanks. There's enough material to be absorbed for a lifetime in there. I have just downloaded your emulator and played against Mephisto 68000, it brought back memories of my youth as I related here:F.Huber wrote: ↑Fri May 29, 2020 7:16 pm Hi,

Re: Exist a posibility to play against MK V (1981 computerworldchampion) on PC?
Today in the game 2 of my match against Mark V i used Mess and the preconfiguration of Arena GUI.
I am missing any informationoutput of Mark V under this configuration. No evaluation of the position, no mainline, absolut nothing.
Is this right?
Please give me more data under Arena GUI .

The UCI/WB interface in CB-Emu is not prepared for such engine informations, it only handles moves and (engine!) levels.Thomas Lagershausen wrote: ↑Sat May 30, 2020 7:12 pm Today in the game 2 of my match against Mark V i used Mess and the preconfiguration of Arena GUI.

Since every engine provides such search infos (if at all) in different ways, this would mean that I had to add different code
for every engine - simply impossible for about 250 engines (I still have an other life besides CB-Emu ).
