I use(d) the 7.04 UCI of course because I know of no other 7.04 version. It
seems quite stronger than the normal Shredder 7 - you might also compare some
results, at least the one vs. Fritz as I have done a Shredder 7 test.
The best settings are probably the default ones, I don't think the engine is to
improve by changing some parameters. At least not in a way that it is obvious
stronger. Stefan puts a lot of energy in finding the best adjustment, and the
results prove him right. Changing settings only makes sense for Chessmaster as
the default selectivity is only 6 which might be working for short time control
games but not for longer time controls. So the most improvement in CM is to
raise the selectivity.
