You should also change the engine parameters of crafty to computer opponent(the default is human opponent). I also do not like the fact that Junior5 uses the same tablebases as Fritz5 because I cannot use the tablebase if I have only Junior5 without Fritz5. In other words the tablebases are not part of the Junior5 program. The program should be called Junior5(Fritz5 tablebases). I do not think that the tablebases of Junior5 change more than 5 elo in the rating of Junior5(It has a good chance to find the right moves without tablebases) and I do not understand why chessbase does this unfair thing of not selling it as a part of Junior and using it in games for rating.
