Redqueen v0.9.5 release

Post by bhlangonijr »

Yet another Redqueen release. It tries to fix some problems in the time management routines and other minor fixes/improvements.

Linux 32/64 bits binaries (GCC with PGO)/source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/redquee ... p/download
Windows 32/64 bits binaries(GCC with PGO)/source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/redquee ... p/download

SVN tag: https://redqueenchess.svn.sourceforge.n ... ease-0.9.5

I hope this is the last bugfix release until Redqueen 1.0. :)

Keep up the good work! I see version 0.7.5 on ccrl but nothing newer. Is this version significantly stronger that 0.7.5?

Don, version 0.9.5 is about 200 Elo stronger than 0.7.5. :)

Aser from CCRL is running some gauntlets for version 0.9:

Code: Select all

1   RedQueen 0.9 64-bit -2673- 76.5/120
2   Gaviota 0.80 64-bit  2642  11.5/24
3   Bruja 1.9.1 64-bit   2574  10.0/24
4   Trace 1.36           2591  8.5/24
5   Pawny 0.2 64-bit     2532  7.5/24
6   Eeyore 1.52 64-bit   2542  6.0/24
http://kirill-kryukov.com/chess/discuss ... f=7&t=5712
Also, Werner from CEGT is running tests for the new release using the 64 bits version.

In average RedQueen improve +/- 100 Elo per new release (except for bugfix releases).

I expect something around 2700 Elo for the new release.

RedQueen Elo history:

Code: Select all

ReQueen 0.5 --> 2180 Elo 
ReQueen 0.6 --> 2280 Elo 
ReQueen 0.7 --> 2450 Elo 
ReQueen 0.75 --> 2530 Elo 
ReQueen 0.8 --> 2620 Elo
ReQueen 0.9.5 --> +/- 2700 Elo

* some numbers are based on CCRL/CEGT and others from my own tests.

I predicted this.

I met Ben Hur in Leiden and after talking to him and getting to know him a bit I felt that he was likely to represent the next wave of top programmers.

Of course with the clones and cheaters new talent suffers - they won't get the recognition they deserve - so I'm happy to see that Ben Hur has been able to keep his interest level high and that his improvements have not gone unnoticed.

It's my feeling that we will lose a lot of talent and diversity due to the cloners.

Thank you for your kind words, Don. I hope to keep improving my engine and to correspond to your predictions in a near future. :)
