Hi All,
For those interested: I just managed to get VC++ 2003 .NET to compile my code:-)
It took me about 1.5 hours of unexpected work, but the result is there: I have the honor to present Jan Willem v1.10, downloadable here: http://www.students.cs.uu.nl/~lwinkelh/janwillem/.
Changes against v1.09:
- Some tweaking of the nullmove code. May actually be worse in zugzwang positions, but preliminary testing suggests the speedup is worth it:-)
- Some small bugfixing (the one Leo pointed out:-)
- Thanx to Leo, Olivier, Ciro, G?nther and the other TM's I managed to find quite some bad-out-of-book positions in the openingbook, which I have changed accordingly.
The new book is compatible with v1.09 so even if you continue to use v1.09 in your tourneys, I would appreciate it if you would update the book:-)
Bye, Laurens.
