Notes about new Little Goliath version
Posted: 02 Mar 2006, 18:44
Today a new version of Little Goliath Evolution was released
at Michael Borgst?dts site.
I noticed that at least the Opening_Book option is case sensitive!
Hence for all who use LGEvo with Polyglot please note that, if
you want to change the default book value 'wide' to 'tournament',
it must be exactly like that, otherwise LGEvo starts calculating.
My Polyglot.ini file e.g.:
Here are all UCI options listed:
(I wonder why the 'Tablebases' option is 'false' by default?
I haven't tested it yet with tbs, thus my values above
are just my generic ones and I probably have to add
'Tablebases = true')
