@JohnWoe Congratulations for the 1.44 version. I still get a warning from CuteChess Cli "EngineProcess: Destroyed while process is still running". Not had time to look into the source code, but I imagine that it is related to the management of the "quit" command. I have that issue since 1.40. Update...

Thank you Jonathan. I downloaded your latest build. If I see again games lost on time I will report it here. Glad that you think of adding FRC support.

Interesting. Iota 0.1 seems to be indeed much stronger than the other versions.

The only explanation that I can see now is that the 0.1 version is stronger than 0.3.

Or maybe it's because I didn't use the better compilation options.

@Graham,Guenther Thank you for your answers. Note that Daniel White later worked again a bit on Iota and released two source code only versions 0.2 and 0.3. Github says he even commited 9 changes more after 0.3, but I don't know any of them compiled. (You did compile 0.3 though?) https://github.com/...

Hello! I wonder where I can find Iota 1.0. I see it in the 40/4 list. Is it this engine by D. White? I ask the question because I never saw the 1.0 version and also because I didn't expect to see it so high in the list.

Thank you Jonathan for the update. Both problems solved. Here are the results of some engines tournaments I made yesterday with CuteChess Cli. The time control is 40/60. I use Bayeselo for the ratings, with a zero value for Iota 0.3. Rank Name Elo + - games score oppo. draws 1 Senpai 2.0 1087 111 92...

Made a quick engines tournament with CuteChess Cli. I noticed two little things. First, Slow Chess "loses" several games because of the missing "q" character in promotion moves, which (unfortunately) is considered by CuteChess as an illegal move. Second thing, CuteChess repeats often the warning "Il...

Very good news! Slow Chess is one of my favourite chess programs.

Very glad to see Alouette 0.0.5 in the 40/4 list. Thanks to the team!
