My first analyes with Strelka says "Strelka = Rybka (Clone)"
My new analyses with Belka 1.8.13 says "Belka = NO Rybka (Clone)"
New Version of Belka 1.8.13, here:

Is Belka a Rybka?

Re: Is Belka a Rybka?
All versions of Belka are just experimental versions of Strelka made by Igor Korshunov (WildCat). 1.8.13 = 1.8.12 + file person.txt with adjustable parameters. By default (all=0) it is very weak.

Re: Is Belka a Rybka?
what do the parameters mean?
Re: Is Belka a Rybka?
Read their names.
Anyway, Belka is not official engine, its just codename for some internal Strelka test build, not for distribution of any kind.

Re: Is Belka a Rybka?
Thanks.
Is there a good set of the parameters that does pretty well. All zeros must be pretty bad!

Re: Is Belka a Rybka?
When you delete parameter from 'person.txt' then one sets to default automatically. Deleting everything from this file gives default settings (= build 1.8.12) .

Re: Belka Settings please help me
Other than the weak pawns and RookChecksOpening, you can find all of that in Toga (with the exact same names for most). Check out quad() for how it computes passed pawn scores.Edward German wrote:Right.Andrej Sidorov wrote:When you delete parameter from 'person.txt' then one sets to default automatically.
