Solista Polyglot Books

Post by Eduard »

Here is my new Polyglot Book 260822.

What's new? Many new current PlayChess games imported. Losing games were edited manually.

Included is the engine "CF Dynamics" with which I played 118 games on PlayChess. CF Dynamics is the Cfish from 06/20/2021. The Dynamics engine plays more aggressively. This is the difference to normal Cfish. All 118 games (CF Dynamics.pgn) have been played exactly in this order. With an engine that is about 1.5 years old, a result of 50% on the server is great. The hardware was Ryzen 2700 and 14 threads (Stockfish dev. about 7000 kns, Cfish about 11000 kns).

Settings Book:
BestBookMove = OFF
Book Depth = 100 Halfmoves

Solista test book BIN - 260822

I created a small polyglot book that plays the best lines (including some critical ones). It is therefore well suited for testing engines as ENG-ENG matches. The book depth is up to 100 half moves.

Most normal openings are played, as well as Caro-Kann and French.

The book is intended for offline ENG-ENG matches, not for server Elo hunters, nor for competing against other BIN books. I don't know which book depth is the best. I would start with book depth 10 moves first and allow max depth 20 moves (40 half moves). It's all about finding out which engine plays better. Have fun!

Setting:
BestBook Move = OFF
