Robodini

[quote="DonBasically along the same lines as Strelka.[/quote]

Hm, I think a typo,
not Strelka but Houdini 3 - at least the Versions (64bit and 32bit) I downloaded.
Maybe it is only shrinked.

[Houdini]

The funny thing about it is that the author is called, "Telescope Guy" and on the site Richard Vida is congratulated for a nice job on it. But somehow I don't believe Richard Vida was involved.

Well the executables are compressed (upx/mpress), but it's obvious that this is a RE already.
What remains is to change it a bit so that it's slightly different from H3 and voila - where's that guy who claimed that doing a RE is much harder than writing a 3000 engine from scratch?
On the other hand it's good joke and I sort of like it.
It's a public secret anyway how Houdini was "born" so what
I only hope that testers won't start testing it now. But it's their time so they can waste it on whatever they want.
They already test dozens of the same Ivanhoes except with different names.

I think Richard Vida only make it as a joke : to prove it's possible to disassembly Houdini in a week.

If Robodini is improved till it is better than Houdini, Chessbase and ChessOK may be interested.
Who would have thought that they would hook up with Houdini ?

They are interested in selling #1 engine, so I guess they will hook up with anyone as long as it's #1.
They sold Rybka because it was #1, now it's Houdini.
It's just logical, they're commercial and so they think.

I don't know the man behind this project,but I think that this is the gateway leading to the inner secrets of Houdini 3.......
