Hi Eric, Which books were used? This is an important issue. You may have tested book A against book B, if the winboard version played with crafty's book and the native engine with general-book or junior-book or whatever. Besides that, I think that most or all engines lose a little using the winboard adapter. It may be insignificant for some programs, e.g. LGoliath has been optimised for the adapter, I believe. For other programs, the winboard adapter is a major handicap, e.g. for our program Ikarus (one of the so-called "young talents"), whose entire time management gets mixed up and more. So for us, the native interface is a definite win when it comes to playing under the ChessbaseGUI. Regards, Munjong.
