Re: Your favourite UCI engine
...looking also for some adequate UCI engines... Rodent IV seems to be interesting in principle, as it provides personalities and one should be able to reduce its strength to beginner level: http://www.pkoziol.cal24.pl/rodent/rodent.htm Unfortunately the UCI_Elo command seems not to be persistent a...

Re: Your favourite UCI engine
you last post was over 6 years ago :shock: Welcome Back Regards Steve Thx a lot... In the mean time my son started playing chess. So... was looking also for some adequate UCI engines on top of the Novag Carnelian II I digged out and gave to him recently. The wooden ones are still too strong... When...

Re: Your favourite UCI engine
Man, I am surprised that Steve Blincoe, the guardian of this place, has not YET jumped to tell you this is a collector site of real chess computers, not engines. In the past, Steve even sent a detail of gunmen to evaporate people that committed your mistake. In time he has become softer, but beware...

You are right, I had only the number here... http://www.schach-computer.info/wiki/index.php/Novag_Super_Constellation ...in mind. In the text the SSDF Elo is mentioned. So my comparison is just in Wiki Elos. The GK 2100 you are referring to gets about 2020 in that list while the Sapphire is somewher...

I think we tend to look at these old machines with rose-coloured glasses. ... The little Nintendo won the associated 6 game match 6 points to nil. Hmm, for a Fritz 9 or 10 on a 60-70MHz hardware this is by no means a weak opponent despite of possibly having the image to be just a 'toy console progr...

By the way, if I had another wish free, I would like the Resurrection II module set to have the option to use the Hiarcs program. Actually Hiarcs 13.3 was available for the Revelation I board and i am fairly certain it was Available for the Res ll Modules(given both have the same exact hardware)..a...

One of my other regrets was never having the funds to buy one of the small, wooden Mephistos. To me these are still the best looking wooden machines ever produced. I would have loved to see a machine in that style of housing with a 68000-based, Lang hash table program. Yes, in my opinion the relati...

Ok, now at home, I tried the Vacouver 68020 on tournament level (2h in 40) and indeed, in the diagram position it starts to think about 37.d6 but after about 2:30 it switches to 37.Qg4 and also ends up playing this move! The reply 37.- Qb6 is answered by 38.Qf3 (with the idea Nh6+ and a hit on f7) a...
