Hi Philip,

I run over 300 games with Crafty Cito 1.4.2 and the following configuration:
Ponder must be off and Crafty doesn't like long names in TB-path (eg "program
files x86")

Crafty.rc

log off
book off
hash 48M
hashp 12M
cache 32M
tbpath=c:\tb
egtb
mt 2
ponder off
resign 5
exit

wb2uci.eng

; CRAFTY 19.13
[ENGINE]
Name=Crafty Cito 1.4.2 x64 Dual
Author=Hyatt
Filename=Wb2Uci.exe

[OPTIONS]
Program=cito-AMD64-smp.exe
InitString=
HashCommand=hash %iM
LevelExtend=progressive
TerminateHard=true
Priority=low
RunIdle=true
Ponder=false
WhiteScore=true


hope this helps

regards
Wilhelm
