With some others used by many people you cannot get the same results/moves. Below my Wb2Uci.eng where under "Extras" the textfiles are defined which contains the corresponding settings: [ENGINE] Name=The King 3.23 Author=Johan de Koning, NED Filename=Wb2Uci.exe [OPTIONS] Program=c:\programme\ubi soft\chessmaster 9000\TheKing.exe InitString=cm_parm default\ncm_parm opk=332090 HashCommand=cm_parm tts=%i004096 ShowThinkingMove=true ;Logfile=true Visible=Ponder,Hash,ShowThinkingMove,Logfile,Extras [EXTRAS] Personality=<readfile>|combo|Default|Default|CM9_Brann|CM9_8777|CM9_Pillen|CM9_Utz12n|CM9_Utz12p|CM9_SRK And furthermore I state the contents of the individual textfiles that must be in the same folder as the Wb2Uci.eng [please note that the textfiles must be named exactly as mentioned below, i.e. CM9_Brann.txt] ;---- Default.txt ; Default Chessmaster 9000 personality cm_parm opp=100 opn=100 opb=100 opr=100 opq=100 cm_parm myp=100 myn=100 myb=100 myr=100 myq=100 cm_parm mycc=100 mymob=100 myks=100 mypp=100 mypw=100 cm_parm opcc=100 opmob=100 opks=100 oppp=100 oppw=100 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=0 rnd=0 sel=9 md=99 ;--- File end ;---- CM9_Brann.txt ; A personality CM9_8999 created by Stephan Brann cm_parm opp=117 opn=113 opb=117 opr=115 opq=117 cm_parm myp=117 myn=113 myb=117 myr=115 myq=117 cm_parm cc=102 mob=120 ks=130 pp=102 pw=120 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=-9 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99 ;---- File end ;---- CM9_8777.txt ; A personality created by Stefan Kleinert, GER cm_parm opp=103 opn=121 opb=127 opr=121 opq=123 cm_parm myp=103 myn=121 myb=127 myr=121 myq=123 cm_parm cc=112 mob=123 ks=160 pp=117 pw=133 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=-2 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99 ;---- File end ;---- CM9_Pillen.txt ; A personality created by Markus Pillen, GER cm_parm opp=96 opn=99 opb=102 opr=100 opq=103 cm_parm myp=96 myn=99 myb=102 myr=100 myq=103 cm_parm cc=115 mob=120 ks=150 pp=115 pw=125 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=-10 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99 ;---- File end ;---- CM9_Utz12n.txt ; A personality created by Kurt Utzinger, SWZ cm_parm opp=100 opn=100 opb=100 opr=100 opq=100 cm_parm myp=100 myn=100 myb=100 myr=100 myq=101 cm_parm cc=102 mob=102 ks=100 pp=100 pw=100 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=0 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99 ;---- File end ;---- CM9_Utz12p.txt ; A personality created by Kurt Utzinger, SWZ cm_parm opp=100 opn=100 opb=103 opr=100 opq=100 cm_parm myp=100 myn=100 myb=103 myr=100 myq=101 cm_parm cc=102 mob=102 ks=100 pp=100 pw=100 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=0 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99 ;---- File end ;---- CM9_SKR.txt ; A personality created by Sedat Canbaz, Kurt Utzinger, Rolf Buehler cm_parm opp=100 opn=100 opb=100 opr=100 opq=100 cm_parm myp=100 myn=100 myb=100 myr=100 myq=101 cm_parm cc=105 mob=110 ks=155 pp=100 pw=100 cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=-2 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99 ;---- File end
