The engine seems not to know its name

I tried to install it under chessbase and found no komodo engine but only Doch32 1.0 JA(that seems to be an older version relative to Doch32 1.3.4 JA)

I ran it at console mode and we had the "discussion" that you can see at the end of the post.
when the engine claimed in id name Doch32 and not Komodo
so I understand that what I see as Doch32 1.0 JA is practically Komodo
but I think that it is a bug that should be fixed.


"discussion":
engine:Komodo version 1.0 JA
I:uci
engine:id name Doch32 1.0 JA

Small update to the compiles is available on my homepage that fixes
the uci id name string. It was showing Doch instead of Komodo.

Indeed, there is a cosmetic bug in the renaming of the version. It's all functionally correct, but it reports the wrong name. I asked Jim Ablett to make the fix - I hope I'm not trying his patience with these glitches.

I have to congratulate you on a great achievement. This is most definitely the best tuned evaluation of any engine I have seen. Of course I have only tested some few positions, but the static evaluation is impressive. I think this will score more than the +40 ELO points you mentioned and will give R3 and the latest R3 clones a run for their money. I would rate the static evaluation as being better than R3 or the clone family in many positions.

I like Don's logo (Jim's?), but here's an alternative if anybody wishes to use it:
