Subject: Beta Crafty/UCI Evaluation File Settings Available for Fritz 7

Author: Mike Byrne

Date: 16:08:10 11/30/02


These files will enable the crafty user to set their favorite settings via the
Frtitz 7 GUI in a windows enviroment and on a real time basis without restarting
Fritz/Shredder.  This is an alternative method for setting these variables in
lieu of setting these variables through the crafty.rc file.  You will still have
a "limited" crafty.rc file.

Requirements:  Fritz 7 or Shredder 6 with the update to install UCI engines is
required for these files to work.  If you do not have one of these programs,
these files will be of NO use to you.

If you are interested, please email me @ mfbyrne_pa@msn.com.

Note this is a beta.  My ability to provide support will be limited.  Users
shoud be experience with Crafty and installing UCI engines in Fritz 7 (or
Shredder 6).

Includes Crafty 19.01 SE with UCI Adapter for Fritz 7 and 2 premade *.eng files
for changing Crafty evaluation settings -

The first *.eng has individual options for these settings:

(Note to set piece values requires Crafty 19.01 SE available for free via email

There are some problems with some of the weaker personalities.  If crafty does
not have a PV when the depth or node limitiation is reached, it will claim a
stalemate.  This problem is not 100% fixed, although it will occur less in this
version than in previous versions.  If anybody would to provide code that might
eliminate this problem, please contact me.

Thanks and Enjoy!

Michael Byrne

PS

I will collect requests for the next 12-18 hours or so and then send the files
