Started coding, here is a sample run so far. The score is in cp and is side POV. The master reply with lower score +47 (example below) will be the one to follow, and bestmove at root is d7d6 from slave 1.

I will upload a beta once it can play as uci engine with support of at least movetime TC.

Could you suggest a unique name for this Adapter?

Wow! That's very cool, and you did it quickly! I've always sucked at naming stuff, may I suggest Spicy Tequila? The idea it's like such a Cocktail, and you get a differe flavor every time!

Thank you very much, will be playing with it right now

In the example Fizbo 2 actually does not fully support movetime, it just played quickly after go movetime n.

There can be types/classifications of Tequila, it is possible that we will name it Tequila, and since Tequila is very common try to create unique name out of it, say "Aitqeul", it starts with ai - artificial intelligence.

Thanks. Yay! Ticking the "Exact time" box on Shredder GUI works, games are playing! I'll experiment with Time Factor in the meantime

OK good.

[Ovyron]

Yeah, managed to play 2 games without problems, the concept works!

Well, the idea of Spicy Tequila was to name it after a Cocktail, since it's allowing us to make cocktails of chess engines, but Tequila alone doesn't work. I have been looking for Tequila cocktail names but none seem to serve our purposes.

However, if you want something that starts with Ai, what about removing the first letter of some cocktail to make a pun? Then the name could be Aiquiri (from Daiquiri), Aipirinha (from Caipirinha), or... Aigasm? (from the cocktail with Amaretto, Kahlua and Baileys Irish Cream).

Hmmm...

What is the lates version of your: Polyglot Book Creator?

Where can I download it?

I stopped developing it. My new plan is to write the GUI in c# in windows, it is more prettier than python tkinter. If there are interests I may continue it.

Any of the two options sounds good (python version doesn't look particularly ugly). I know a few guys over at the MZ forum who use bin books on a regular basis, but before letting them know, I'd like to report the current functionality.

I downloaded SF 9 games from CCRL 40/40 and made a book with default parameters, selecting Andscacs white games. Then, I selected those games directly and looked at the tree. In the screenshot below, you can see side by side the information resulting from the tree, as produced by Scid vs. Mac, and the moves available in the book created by the tool:



Shouldn't Nf3 be an option?

- e4 scores 5 draws (5 points in polyglot terms)
- d4 -> 3 points
- c4 -> 3 points
- Nf3 -> 1 point

All those moves have at least 3 games, so the "normal" probability should be:

- e4 42%
- d4 25%
- c4 25%
- Nf3 8%

I will use Aiquiri in the next beta.

What do you mean by "selecting Andscacs white games."?

What do you mean by "selecting Andscacs white games."?

Player: Andscacs
White box: check
Black box: uncheck

I have dowloaded the sf9 4cpu games from ccrl.

Code: Select all

Stockfish_9_64-bit_4CPU.commented.[1010].pgn

Set output bin file to

Code: Select all

andscacs_white_win.bin

Set player name to

Code: Select all

Andscacs 0.93 64-bit 4CPU

Then run the creator.



The book andscacs_white_win.bin was created but with 0KB size, meaning the pgn-extract probably did not find a won game by Andscacs based from the filter in player name and win checkbox that was set to on.

No, there's only a dozen draws. The draw box isn't checked by default? If not, check it.

You should be clear, you said you use the default.

I downloaded SF 9 games from CCRL 40/40 and made a book with default parameters

The default is this.




Then you did not actually use default but disable the black, so this is.



I have been analyzing your problem for so long. Then now you tell me to enable the draw. Sorry I have no time for this.
