  |
|
Mediocre v0.5 is released and available for download.
Should be noticably stronger than the previous version (v0.4) and might play quite a bit different since I rewrote a big chunk of the evaluation (probably not adding much in terms of strength though).
For anyone messing about in the code it should be a lot nicer now as I converted it to a Maven project, with a bit of automatic build-params and such. Importing into Eclipse (or some IDE of your choice) should be a breeze now.

Thanks Jonatan!  Both for the engine and... your guides! Often, when I google for a programming topic I end up on your website!

| Hi Jonatan. I seemed to have problems with the supplied performance.bin book. Mediocre opened the book, but didn't play any books moves, as white or black. There were no entries in the log file. It did seem to work with the performance.bin book from my Fruit installation, so maybe it's the book file itself...? |

You're right, very strange. I wonder if my performance.bin was corrupted somewhere along the way.. It seems to work with a fresh download.
I'll make a new release with a new performance.bin.
And if you already downloaded it, just replace it with a new one.

So taking Matthew's advice from my previous post I took a look at all the lines touching futility pruning, and I found a difference. It was indeed futility being turned off (I had missed a third boolean).

See? I can be a useful person, honestly!
