... using Arena

Post by Matthias Gemuh » Sat Aug 20, 2011 10:05 am

How do I let Arena 2.01 or 3.0 create debug/log files ?
I have run several mini tournaments, but no debug file has been created.
My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.

Under Engines/Manage/Options the first tick-box you find is 'Start engines with debug-window'. That is to be ticked and you'll have your debug file.

Hmm, that may not be enough. In the pop-up debug window (which can also be invoked by pressing <F4> during play) there is another tick-box 'Save to Arena.debug'. That is to be ticked.
