Go up one level in this thread


It's very simple.

Rybka is sold as an UCI engine.

There is no UCI book format.

So, when a book is promised, it is clear that it will be in some other format
that only works with some interfaces.

People complaining that they need to purchase additional software to use the
book, should consider this:

You already need additional software to use the engine itself in the first
place.

Complaining about Rybka using a *.ctg book, thus requiring chessbase software,
is like complaining about Rybka needing Windows to run. Do you expect Vas to
write an independent operating system for your computer too?
