Subject: Problems with Kulu 4.0, who can help?

Author: Klaus Wlotzka

I am the author of the CSS-Rangliste. There are tested the
strongest chess programs with clear defined conditions. I'm sure that Ktulu 4.0
could also take place in my list.

At approximately every 10th game "Ktulu 4.0" makes no more move and loses the
game for a limited time so. I already have tried out several attitudes,
unfortunately without success.

The problem always appears with the white pieces and during an early phase of
the game (after 10-11 moves).

Testconditions:
Time control/Engine = 10 Min. + 10 Sec./move
Games per opponents = 20
Book function = deactivated
Pondering = deactivated
Engine-Settings = default
Opening Book = non
Opening specifications = 10 SeE-opening positions (revised)
Endgame databases = Nalimov - 3,4 and 5-pieces
Test platform = Fritz 8-GUI
Processor = Athlon TB 1200 Mhz
Main memory = 512 MB
Hashtables/Engine = 128 MB

So that Ktulu doesn't play from the opening book, I have prepared an empty book
file (book.bin = 0 KB)

Who can help me?

The "Wb2Uci.eng" file looks so?

[ENGINE]
Name=Ktulu 4.0
Author=Rahman Paidar
Filename=Wb2Uci.exe

[OPTIONS]
Program=Ktulu.exe
InitString=
HashCommand=128
;HashCommand=hashmem %i
Edit=edit
ShowThinkingMove=true
OwnBook=false
;Logfile=true
WhiteScore=false
Visible=Ponder,Hash

The "Option"-file looks so:

FUTILITY=TRUE
QEDGE 30
HASH 128
PAWNHASH 6
EVALHASH 2
MOVEIMMEDIATE=TRUE
CHAT=FALSE
QUANTIZATION=FALSE
QUICKPV=TRUE
HASH_CLEAR
END.

Best regards
