Crafty 23.1 reports score to Arena 2.0.1 from its point

of view, not white's. The problem is apparent when Crafty plays black and its scores are the inverse of white's. The " Values absolute (always from white side )" switch is on in Arena. There's no change if I turn it off.

Jim's first version did that. If you're using the JA version try downloading the latest version.

All later versions of Crafty that i have run in Arena has done
that. I kind of got used to it.

Best.

In that case it must have something to do with Arena.

Crafty is the only engine that i have seen do this.
I did download Crafty a few mins ago. When playing now
the values are on the right sides. However Crafty shows all
scores positive when they should be negative..

Somebody had to modify it to produce that behaviour. It does not do it normally...

This Crafty is the latest version from JA.

P.S. Running it in Arena 1.1.

The new updated JA version appears to correct this, but the "Always from white side" switch in Arena must be on.

He had mentioned somewhere back that he had modified crafty to behave like this. Whether this is that version or not is unknown. But normal crafty has been white POV for nearly 15 years now.
