One thing more, (it will be great...)
If commercial engines to be released as demo or as shareware

In this way,
The customers will have choice to see, check... and then to buy...

For example,
I lost interest to buy such engines which are weaker than free Stockfish

Hi Sedat,

not a good idea!
Playing strength is not most interesting as factor ... I buy or not. Most interesting is an own style and perfect in technical using with some interesting Features.

To the link you added in the message before. I am looking a long time. You can see in Critter ... higher the Version more compare to the ipps. Same opinion I have if I am looking in my game stats. 50-60% seems to be ok for this comparing I think.

After this work my decision with Houdini is right, also with the others I replacing. Sjeng and Jonny I am repalcing for other reasons (not available engines).

Hi Sedat,

what do you think about ...
Crafty replacing Rybka ...

Crafty is one of the most important engines.
Must changes my rules ...
At the Moment UCI only.

But Crafty will be killed from each others of my TOP-20.
Deuterium is great too, also NirvanaChess or Exchess. But all of this engines Need 40-60 ELO more to MinkoChess!

Sedat,

Junior is must have with 5/5 stars
Hiarcs is must have with 4/5 stars, GUI development is nice so 5/5 stars
Chiron is must have with 5.5/5 stars :-)
Komodo is must have with 5.6/5 stars :-)
Shredder is must have with 3/5 stars (engine) and 5.7 / 5 GUI :-)

If I remember you pay to many for Ktulu.
I can order Chiron for yourself ... MUST HAVE ... Sedat ... MUST HAVE!
Or Junior if you like ...

Hello Frank,

Yes...this just a idea, still I did not decide...the time will show up!

But however,
In my opinion, X commercial engine should be stronger than free one!

Hi Sedat,

OK, Crafty will be replacing Rybka ...
And Crafty is stronger and stronger with each new version. Only 30 Elo to MinkoChess I think.

Furthermore, interesting to see which engines have Problems vs. Crafty.

Stockfish is great yes but you must not see the playing strength you must see the ideas the programmers have and all the nice playing styles.

Junior and Chiron are fantastic programs. Hiarcs too ... from the Commercials.

Crafty replacing Rybka = SUPER !!! :) :)

Robert Hyatt will be very happy !!


Note that Crafty as WB (under Fritz GUI) does not play at full performance

Probably under Shredder GUI too, we will see same performance by Crafty

Nice...advertising :)

You get a free copies from those commercial teams ?

Just joking :)

Of course those mentioned commercial engines are one of my favorites...

But we should not forget to mention,
Stockfish is just from another planet, a piece of diamond-lupenrein, plus free !!


Also the free great engines are
Gull
Hannibal
Protector
vs...

Robert Hyatt is not happy with myself I believe.
He wrote to one of my first postings here ... my Math is bad. Others thinking the same if I write storys in German forum about Elo :-)

Better Robert had written my English is bad ...
Frank go home and learning English ... but so many others here understand my Frankish.

It's a pity that we lost Dann Corbit and Jim Ablett. The work he do for us are soooo good and the postings are great to read ... also with my bad English. Must have a look in the compiles by Peter Skinner.

And believe my, Robert isn't happy with me but not important for myself. I like 90% of the Messages by Robert and learning a lot from him. But in different things I have an other opinion.

15.000 games Robert is playing for a new Crafty Version and he is looking on a wrong ErrorBar and wrote to me my math is bad. Tzzz

OK ...
Robert Hyatt is an own topic but I like him.
Perhaps he is right with my Math is bad.
I am to old to learn it ... in this time I will go to the next Pizza place, to a good Football game or to a Kebab place. I learned enough in my life.

Never Mark give me things for free ... but he wrote a long time ... please use Arena ... I am working thousands of hours. Is OK ... he is right in business. For different Shredder versions I got a good price and from Mark too. yes! All is OK ...

In times I am working for Gambit-Soft I gave all what I got to a chess Club for free. Also all what I got from ChessBase in the past for free. I will not have such things and pay for all what I will have.

In your brain is better as Stockfish ... this you should delete or you lost your interest very fast because you can hold it if you able to see the differents between engines.

And you are able ...
