Come on...don't be too naive please...

Stockfish is another piece of diamond and plus free, once more I say:
BIG thanks to Stockfish team ! Also to Sugar's author , Komodo's authors, Houdini author...

'Vas clearly stated that he studied from Fruit'

is that the same thing as saying...

Vas clearly stated that he 'copied' from Fruit
Ok...take it easy, only Rybka is a clone )))

Are you satisfied ?))

And all other rest chess programs are 100% original and based only on own ideas (came from Mars) !!!

But however once more I kindly suggest,
Please post your origin opinions in the origin section (next time)

Thanks in advance

Sedat,

I think you deliberately confuse the concept of using ideas and taking code. But aside from that if I took the Stockfish code and managed to improve it by say 100 elo. By changing evaluation and other things am I now the greatest programmer in the world? Even though I would have no idea how to write a Chess engine from a blank sheet of paper.

Any good Chess engine programmer could take the code of another engine and add a lot of elo because they have tricks in their own engine that can be added.

I would like to see a Rybka 5.

I have no issues with Vasik, and his chess engine.

So, yes!

Best wishes,

Jason

Well of course Rybka is a very interesting chess engine........very strong...dynamic.......good late middlegame and endgame player.....great positional program......with some controversy also (lots) with another 5-7 ply depth of search Rybka is back near or on top..people in Rybka forum wait for Rybka 5 but nothing.....posting in talkchess forum accomplishes little because Vas does not either read or post in this arena as far as I know.....it cannot be that difficult to track the man down and ask him directly...he has a contact area on Rybkachess.com or a direct email link.....correct? The best method is to find him and get his direct answer on the question.......AR :) :wink:
