I am now glad to announce the release of the successor Glass 1.0.
Glass is an UCI-compatibile chess engine, written by Pawel Koziol and myself.
While the old version was rated 2271 on CCRL we expect the new release to be breaching the 2300 Elo barrier.
The main updates include:
- - numerous bugfixes
- new opening book format (*.gob)
- including manually created opening book containing more than 65.000 positions
- separate principal variation hash table to improve move ordering and to return longer lines while analyzing
- improved king safety evaluation to encourage more interesting game
- asymmetric mobility evaluation is now default
- added commands (eg.: 'go searchmoves <move1> <move2> <move n>')
The engine is available on the updated webpage:
