Tuning eval

Post by Daniel Anulliero »

Hi all !
I would like to know your diferents methodologys to create and tuning your eval function(s) (self tests, chess problems etc...)
I started again to write a chess engine this time from "pseudo" scratch ( starting from firstchess and adding everythings gradualy)
Actually ISA have only material , pst in his eval and pvs , qsearch , hashtables in his search
Thanks for your comments
