ZCT 3.2442 by Zach Wegner - JA Windows builds available

[F. Bluemers]

Damn,I hate this kind of engine design,The King 3.50 and now ZCT

And another thing, SMP support probably won't work properly on any platform, I've been in the middle of some rather big changes there...

This will be fixed at some point...

thanks,in that case i will skip the cygwin/smp version for the time being

Thanks Zah,we just can't match it as a MP engine in it's current status

[Jim Ablett]

Uci id string fix for Chessbase is up on my site now.
Thanks Adam.

Jim.

I sent you a mail Jim. It still wont load in chessbase after fix 2.


Best,

Hi George,

I did manage to get ZCT working in Chessbase as a uci engine by compiling it as uci only not dual uci/winboard. The problem is uci mode
doesn't work as well as winboard and occasionally sends wrong/illegal moves. Compiling as winboard only and using wb2uci didn't work.

Jim.

Best,

ZCT doesn't resign (I figured it wouldn't need to ), it's an illegal move. Do you have the logfile? Were you running as UCI or XBoard?

Best,

Hi Harun,

I can fix this by disabling sending mate result completely. This will work ok in Arena, but winboard will hang wait for the result.

I'll post a build here for you to try later.

Jim.

Excellent Jim.

Thx.

[Zach Wegner]

OK, that's a bug with the hash/PV extension that was just added the other day. I hadn't played any games with it, and barely tested it, so no surprise there.

I'll probably fix the bug later tonight, but a workaround for now is to put "notation coord" in ZCT.ini. ZCT won't do the PV extensions in coordinate mode, but the PVs will look ugly.

That's probably what happened in the games Will Singleton posted as well. What happens is that, ZCT checks if the game is over as it prints out the PV, and it was setting the game_result variable incorrectly if the game ended in the PV, and then sending the result...

I was surprised that there were problems in XBoard mode, when I thought it was all debugged. I think the above work around should solve everything though.
