Today's Featured Match: IvanHoe B47e v Rybka 4.1

[kranium]

Your settings are the topic for myself.
Looks great I think. I believe, not sure, Ahmed used in his older compiled versions of IvanHoe such settings too. Not the same but comparable.
Perhaps I should try out this settings for IvanHoe "PeterPan" in around week. What do you think?

Hi Frank-

those are not my settings...
it's a couple of the many changes made by PeterPan in his IvanHoe B47E (version).
it changes the way the program plays...therefore it's really no longer just a 'compile' of IvanHoe source code.

Peterpan has done a great job over the years providing compiles..
but he usually puts his own stamp on them, and likes to change the code in an effort to make it stronger...
I have nothing against PeterPans work, have tried many of his compiles myself...

but as a purist, i am simply recommending that you guys test versions using 100% source code 'as released' by the Ippo authors,
not someone's experimental try...

KLO's compiles use 'original' source code only...no experimental changes
they are neat, well organized, extremely consistent, and all are easily available from one location
in addition, he includes 32-bit as well as 64-bit for both Linux and Windows

Hi Norman,

OK, let us start a big IvanHoe SWCR test
For SWCR-64.

Best version will be later play in SWCR-32 ...

So
IvanHoe by PeterPan and IvanHoe KLO will be start to the same time in two round robins.

And all programmres and the users which have interest on it can visiting the results. I think this one will be the perfect solution.

What do you think?

Best
Frank

[kranium]

perfectly ok with me...
as you know, i'm happy to see you test any version of IvanHoe

you (and George) deserve thanks for your time and effort in this regard

[Frank Quisinsky]

OK!

Where I can find the latest KLO version?
At the moment I test the actual PeterPan version.

Not sure that I can today start this test.
I have to test different things and after this one I am sure PeterPan will send me his OK for testing.

Best
Frank

Need the KLO version now!
The latest I have on my hard disk is from ...
November 14th, 2011

see post #3 in this thread

[Frank Quisinsky]

OK!

I will test now and add later in my download area the settings I used for both KLO and PeterPan, means the Shredder Classic 4 configuration file.

Thanks and later ...

Best
Frank

Frank-
one last thing...

IvanHoe version numbers can be confusing

in general, the lowest number (with the highest letter) is the newest...
at this time, the most recent release is 46f

one can always reference the change log
see the file 'CHANGELOG' (located in the src directory)

the authors list version history with major changes

for ex, at the very bottom of the page:

999946 Emerge RobboBaseLib
Version b: comply WINDOWS (Capitalist!)
Version c: Chess960 ComradesGUI
Version d: Chess960 IvanHoe (value)
Plus: Nostredame bug fix to OpenTripleFile (DIR_NOME) for WINDOWS
Version e: Bug fix (slankamen), Newbuy count 5 in Squeeze
Version f: WINDOWS fix, Nostredame to ReFactor, plus fidgets (typo)

perhaps you already knew this...just posting it in case it helps
