BugChess2 1.6.3 is out !

Post by FrancoisK » Tue Nov 04, 2008 5:49 pm

As usual, available for download from Leo's site (http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/).

The bug now comes with a x64 version (since 1.6.2) AND a readme.txt (most important information : use -winboard parameter to use it with Winboard, Arena or any other winboard interface).
The book has (hopefully) been improved.

Cheers

François

Thank you very much, Francois.

Apart from the book, are there other significant changes in the engine?

Yes, several search and eval improvements. Nothing spectacular, but significant :)

Thanks, Francois. BugChess is improving versions after versions leaps and bounds. We always need something new to keep testing, or to get the hobby going! :D
