Running Cilian under Arena

[Olivier Deville]

Preparing my D tournament...

Cilian 4.14 doesn't run here under Arena 1.092 when installed as a WB engine. I have in the command line : -xboard -hash20 -mvnw -easy

I tried to install it as a UCI engine with my wb2uci setup from the Fritz GUI and it works. But of course I would prefer to use the WB protocol.

Any hints ?

It doesn't work. You'll can use wb2uci successfully. here's the eng file details.

Code: Select all

[ENGINE]
Name=Cilian 4.14
Author=Fran?ois Scheurer, Switzerland
Filename=Wb2Uci.exe

[OPTIONS]
Program=Cilian.exe -xboard -easy -hash20 -mvnw


I have the source code from Fran?ois Scheurer and I am (when I get round to it) going to make it compatible with Arena.

Regards,
Jim.

Hi Jim

Thanks once more for your help ! I'll use wb2uci then.

I have the same problem with KnightCap (working with wb2uci, but not as a wb engine - ipc-daemon running). I suppose the recipe is the same
