LS-rankinglist: Houdini 3 tactical

Post by pohl4711 »

The LS-rankinglist (LightSpeed-rankinglist), now with Houdini 3 tactical (Parameter Tactical Mode=true). -31 elo to Houdini 3. Excactly what R.Houdart expected...

Intel i7-2630QM (SSE42 support, Windows 7 64bit, 2 GHz Quadcore, FritzMark=20.2, Houdini (one core) 2.2 meganodes/s (middlegame)), 64 MB Hash, 1 core per engine (Hyperthreading off), no ponder, no endgame-bases, no resign. 500 selected opening-positions (all 8 moves deep, from Frank Q.-database)
Elos calculated with bayeselo (mm 0 1)(fixpoint Robbolito 0.085g3 3000 Elo). LittleBlitzerGUI (gauntlet-mode only, because this GUI chooses opening-positions per random in the round-robin-mode from the PGN-file...)
Time: 45''+500ms Fischerbonus (= 85-90 seconds per game/engine).

LS-rankinglist with best engine-versions only (no betas, no settings, no development-versions) (RoundRobin, 1000 games against each opponent):

There was a bad release of DS 3.1, then a fixed version. Which one was this?

It was the Version 3.1a Distro, which is still the newest on the Deep Saros Homepage...
