Hello !

Like you know a new Winboard chess engine was released ! It is JikChess 0.01 by Janne I. Kokkala/Finland ! Written in C++11.
====================
http://koti.kapsi.fi/jik/jikchess/
====================

Only some infos:

- exists also a 32-bit binary for old PCs-OS & MEN (like me ! :lol: THANK YOU !);
-if you use this engine in Arena or Fritz GUI (via a Wb2Uci adapter) below are some important command lines:

--ttsize n........... n is the size of transposition table in MB.

--gavpath PATH.........Gaviota tablebase path.

--gavsize n.......n is the size of Gaviota tablebase cache in MB.

--ptsize n........n is the size of pawn table in MB.

The default book is book.bin (you can use here Stockfish 2.3.1 book - a good one) !

All in all a nice chess engine !

Regards,
SilvianR :wink:

Around 2450. Truth probably lies somewhere inbetween. :)
