CAP Database

Post by Ralf Schaefer »

Hello,

i just try to generate an new opening book for my engine.
For this purpose it would be helpful to have some precalulated scores for certain opening positions avaliable.
At the moment i start a fixed depth search in my generation program and calculate a score for each position.
But this is a realy time consuming job.

I have a copy of Aquarium on my computer there are files like cap_huge.elm, cap_hug.hsh.
This files contains such precalculated stuff. But no idea about the data format and I guess there are no free informations about data describtion available.

So is there any free available CAP database I can use ?
