I have not seen any mention of BullitChess anywhere here:

https://bitbucket.org/CornFLX/bullitchess/

There is a download in the downloads section, but it is missing some necessary DLL files. I have uploaded a complete package here:

http://tonyschess.x10host.com/bullitchess_1.0.rar

Note that this program does not seem to support blitz or incremental time controls, only x moves in y minutes or fixed depth. I have not played a lot of games with it, but I would estimate it to be its ELO to be 1600-1700.

EnkoChess has been updated. September 1 compile:

Hmm, seems that an engine called DirtyBit, by Andrew Backes, has been overlooked:

https://github.com/andrewbackes/dirty-bit/releases

I played a bit with the latest release. It's a fixed hash size, about 775 MB. I've only run a few test games with it:

4-0-0 versus Isa (2186 ELO)
3-0-0 versus EveAnn (2337 ELO)
1-4-1 versus Ethereal (2631 ELO)

So anyway, I guess we get a very rough ballpark estimate of its strength.

It had its own web page at one point, but it is now only viewable through the Wayback Machine:

And, the recently released engine SCTR, by Can Cetin & Dogac Eldenk:

https://github.com/nitrocan/sctr/releases

I have been testing it against the likes of Rodent III and ChessBrainVB, and it is competitive with those engines.

I am not sure that one is kosher...

What is it similar to?

It is open source. What are your concerns, Guenther?

Thanks! Never heard of this one, Tony.
