Wanted engines with UCI_Elo

Post by Ferdy »

What I have so far are the following. Tell me if you know of other engines :).

I got one, Horizon 4.4 seems to support elo adjustment by modifying its setting file. I does not support UCI_Elo but the range where I am interested is here so I take this.
# (range: 1000-2375) default value is 2375 (full strength)
SET_ELO 2375

Here's another one:

Code: Select all

DiscoCheck 5.2
min elo 1500
max elo 2700
Theory and practice sometimes clash. And when that happens, theory loses. Every single time.

Thanks this is still inside 1000 to 1600, the range I plan to make some test.
Simulating a weak player is very hard to do. Even in 1500 elo, I don't think DiscoCheck feels very human...

It is indeed difficult, there are a lot to consider. I will spend some time in this area, from 1000 to 1600 trying to be human. I am also observing games from other engines how they play in this range.

DanaZ 0.4

Elo, you can prove to use values between 0 and 2500.

Elo_Type: engine (elo ccrl), computer (elo activ) or human (elo fide).

Computers are machines dedicated the years 80-90 as mephisto, saitek ...

It is preferable to use the engine as xboard and change the settings in the "danasah.txt" file.
