46th Amateur Series Division 2

[Ferdy]

Based from game score, it seemed Deuterium is not using 5-men egbb?
Sample game from Senpai-Deuterium Round 1.2
[d]8/8/7k/6R1/2r2P2/5P2/5K2/8 b - - 18 76

[...] 76. Kf2 {(Kf2) [%eval 140,27] [%emt 0:00:16]} Rxf4 {
(Rxf4) [%eval -48,33] [%emt 0:00:35]} 1/2-1/2

Deuterium played 76. ... Rxf4 {-0.48/33 35s}.
I am not complaining of anything, it has already performed beyond my expectation .

Sample game from Senpai-Deuterium Round 1.2

Egbb_Path G:\egbb

Should be like the following, just add a back slash at the end

Code: Select all

Egbb_Path G:\egbb\

To verify.
1. run in console
2. type xboard
3. type protover

You should see something similar below.

Code: Select all

xboard

Thanks.
Some engines seem to require the backslash at the end whereas others don't.
I'll correct Deuterium's ini file for future tourneys.

Cheers,
