Hi, at the moment i test some pd settings with 3 different opening positions (C68, D27 and D41). Not one of mine or other (albert, thorsten...) settings could score better than 1 out of 6 against Shredder8, Fritz8, Junior8 or Hiarcs9 until now. (time controll 40moves/20min + 40moves/20min + ...) Yesterday i had an idea of changing a parameter. Normally i do this in the following manner: I create a new textfile and copy the rebel default settings (09, 2004) into this textfile. I make my changes and then i save the file and rename it in "rebel.eng" and than i copy this rebel.eng into the personal folder. Yesterday i've forgotten to rename and the new file was called rebel.txt of course. Because of this, ProDeo was playing the 6 games without any "rebel.eng" in the personal folder, only the rebel.txt were in there. In this case the param.txt look like this: *************************************** Executable made on 01-08-2004 Personality Path personal/REBEL.ENG (52) Personality description Initial Hash Table Size 60 Mb Current Hash Table Size 60 Mb Move no. : 25 Minimum Time : 00:00:18 Average Time : 00:00:37 (30) Maximum Time : 00:01:01 Spare time : 00:01:01 Time till next Time Control : 00:08:32 Time Control phase : 1 *************************************** The little match against Shredder 8 ends with a 3.5-2.5 for ProDeo!! I've made the same against Hiarcs 9, the result was 3.0-3.0! Questions (to Ed): What kind of PD was playing? Could it be an older Rebel 12 style when playing without a correct named *.eng file?
