Cray Blitz 49h available (working!)

[WinPooh]

Amazing work Alex

I think your part was the more difficult one

BTW, did you already have look at Kaissa?

I have had a look at it in the past and it look a bit of a nightmare to get it compiling/running
on modern machines, but with the emergence of A.I, I may be able to get some help converting it.
Jim.

As far as I remember, some source code file(s) are missed in this archive. Once I tried to build it with Borland 3.1 under DOSBOX, but there was linker error: FACELIB library is unavailable. I don't know what is this library, Google finds nothing too.

[Jim Ablett]

To get the UCI version to run I had to turn off Windows Defender. I thought once I had it running I could turn back on Windows Defender and it would be okay. Windows Defender killed the running exe immediately and wiped it from the drive. It might be fine and Windows Defender might be wrong but it does not matter. It is not usable. But thanks anyway for trying!

I have repackaged the download to get rid of antivirus alerts >

Thank you! It works.
CrayBlitz plays well in Arena 2.01 with time control 6 sec./move. But it does not provide eval/nodes info, just PV. Is it normal?
