I'm glad to announce the birth of a new commercial engine: Revenge 1.0
It's based on Pedone 3.1 but with many improvements that make it stronger of about 50 elo.

It supports the following features:
- Pure neural network evaluation
- Chess960
- MultiPV for analysis
- Parallel search
- Skill levels
- Large/Huge pages
- Internal 4men tb
- Syzygy egtb support

The improvements respect to Pedone 3.1:
- Tuning depth and margin reverse futility pruning

You should delete Pedone 3.1 since it is available and most people will not pay 19.99 euro for a little improvement of 50 EloFabio Gobbato wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 2:43 pm I'm glad to announce the birth of a new commercial engine: Revenge 1.0

Re: New commercial engine Revenge 1.0
Hi,
Pedone / Revenge is a wonderful development, piece of work!
Human like style engine, very aggressive in the beginning.
The playing style I like so much, can be see in FCP Tourney-2020 and FCP Tounrey-2021 statistics.
To say thanks for a long years work to a programmer - with a lot of feeling for details - is an honour for me.
Unfortunatley, in my opinion a lot of people lost the own honour and give daily the proofs for it.

Re: New commercial engine Revenge 1.0
Stockfish 14 is 285 elo stronger than Pedone 3.1. No one pays for Revenge chess engine only to have a very powerful engine when there is a very powerful chess engine like Stockfish 14.Chessqueen wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 1:43 pm You should delete Pedone 3.1 since it is available and most people will not pay 19.99 euro for a little improvement of 50 Elo
People will buy it either to have a different and high level chess program in their chess engines collection or to support the chess engine author.

Re: New commercial engine Revenge 1.0
Elo is boring in times today!
Top-40 Elo-average in computer chess is at the moment 3125 (same as Shredder 13 level).
250 Elo more as World Champion Carlsen have ... speaking from the average of TOP-40.
Much more interesting is the playing style of engines for self playing.
To give features for Elo-Level ... Wasp can do.
For self playing most interesting!
Engines with a spectacular playing-style are most interesting for me.
To create such a chess-monster-engine is a lot of work in details.
I am looking at first on the details.
But you are right, we all should support engine programmers.
A good test, or in such questions (support a commercial product) ... we have different possiblities to support engine programmers.
In case of Revenge (Pedone) ...
The price for such a product with 19,99 Euro only isn't to high.
The playing style is indeed spectacular!

Frank
Thinking on it ...
In a future product of chess-computers ...
Such a nice program Pedone is will be included and the computer chess community will be very very happy.
Pedone can play much more interesting aggressive chess as TheKing for an example.
Such engines I like to see in new chess computers.
