There doesn't apper to be any bugs in this release. It haven't made any illegal moves yet at least :D

Wonderful :) grabbing now and will play a few games, excited.

Edit: Just tried it out and crashed. Here is the info.

Code: Select all

Did you remember to give it a position to search?

I just tried to give it the same commands:

Code: Select all

Initialized 16MB (524288 entries)  transposition table.
Resized transposition table to 16MB (524288 entries).

It looks like it wasn't passed a position and therefore failed to do an assertation checking if the king was on the board.

Thanks for that game Carlos, that helped me to gather more info for my chronology's (details) new column 'Peculiarities',
a kind of reviving my older 'Bugbase' ;)


Not entirely new though, started it a few weeks ago and from time to time I will add new infos there, this will need
months for sure, despite testing this and that engine and collecting old infos and doing verifications of those.
The test in CuteChess showed that it not only sometimes randomly emits -512 evals but is one of the xboard programs
using non standard move output, which will only work in WB/Xboard due to the lots of old hacks for move parsing.
(WB2UCI can cure the output for it, Inbetween attempts weren't good enough)

Belofte 2.1.1 has been released on Win32/64, Mac32/64, Linux32/64 bit. I count on you for Apple sillicon, android , raspberry, solaris, ... binaries.
Strength improvement compared to 2.1.0: +100 +-50 elo. (In bullet +200 elo.) Estimated at 1250 elo.

Chess rules fixes:
  • Make different draw claim based on FIDE rules.
    Only KK, KNK, KBK and KBKB with all bishops on the same color.
    Not KNNK, KBKN, KNKN and KBKB with unlike bishops;
  • Bug fix: 50 moves counter is now cleared in case of capture with piece;
  • Bug fix: 3 fold repetition more accurate, Hash collision less likely as now
    counting hash piece values instead of hash empty field values;
  • Better time management in xboard protocol and after time control.
Search enhancements:
  • Add Alpha-Beta Fail Soft, Alpha-Beta Fail Hard and make ABFS default.
  • Sort moves before starting to search according to capture bonus and
    centerplay;
  • Add partial Positional Board evaluation and make it default.
UI enhancements:
  • Small improvement in output during search. Debug and log if set.
  • Support for CECP and UCI. Perft.
  • Documentation update.
Important open issues. Segmentation fault upon exit of Mac 64 bit version. (after quit command)
