Hello,

>on engine management uci tab I have selected common own book setting
>and use own book

Fruit has since v2.1 an own book, so Arena will perhaps not use the enginebook
because of this.

>but I had wished to take advantage of the books you created

Yes, but you should use my enginebooks together with a mainbook. The enginebook
is something like a small tournament book, but there are many missing variants.

Out of that there is a bug in Arena and it will play all bookmoves regardless if
the move is activated or not. This weakenes the enginebooks a lot, thats why I
removed them from my site.

I suggest to use the own books of an engine. If the engine don't have an own
book you can use the selected mainbook for all engines, or select for each
engine a different book. If this really don't work for you, you could ask in the
Arena Forum.
