Red October: you could ask on the hiarcs forum Jun-29-08 If I give it an hour for forty moves, it seems to use 40 minutes for the first twenty moves (including however many are in its opening database), then ends up with 30 seconds or so per move as move 40 approaches. Jim Bartle: I downloaded the free version of Hiarcs the other day and find something odd. Open Defence: how does one perform analysis using the engine directly without the GUI I believe this is by typing commands through the ? Open Defence: any idea what platform HIARCS was running on at Paderborn ? are there any strength differences between the Mac and Windows versions ? Hiarcs drew Rybka, Cluster Toga (third place with 5.0/7), Spike and won all the other games. Karpova: Hiarcs won the 17th International Paderborn Computer Chess Championship with 5.5/7 ahead of Rybka (also 5.5/7 but a slightly worse Buchholz). Minasina: Wikipediassa Chess_engine_rating_lists. Maybee I will download some games as an example. I get very bored playing it as the games are always are very similar and I am going to load some more engines and try them. This is using the fruit engine that comes with it. In an open position where it can give itself chances on both sides of the board it kills me. James Bowman: I have Hiarcs running on my Dell Axim handheld, I have no Idea what playing strength it is, but it is very suseptable to attacks on the H file in a semi-closed position. ![]() i heard about 'agressive' mode, how is it activated?Īlbertan: Hi Loisp to activate "aggressive" mode in Hiarcs 9, first click on the engine menu, then click on "change main engine" then click on "engine parameters" and go into the "playing style window" and change it to "aggressive" if it is not already set there. Loisp: hiarcs 9 cannot find the classic sac Bxh7 after 1. IWaNnAbAgM: Alright,so when do you wanna start?įevered cheek: let's start now, i have about an hour before i have to go IWaNnAbAgM: So where should we finish the game?įevered cheek: i have a friend with a premium membership, he'll let us use his forum.

PS: For those windows-users: it might be a good idea to look into cygwin ( ) to bring the power of the commandline to windows.Higher Intelligence Auto Response Chess System is programmed by Mark Uniacke and one of its operators is Harvey Williamson. Using a combination of simple Unix commands and pgn-extract would be still useful even if big databases were supported. ![]() These steps circumvent Hiarcs lack of big database support. PGN-EXTRACT by David Barnes ( ) is a fantastic command line tool to generate smaller databases for your openings. For example you can download all TWIC pgn files, then navigate with the terminal to this directory, eg:Īnd then simply combine them with the cat command: A handful of unix commands make the creation of a masterdatabase very easy. ![]() In Macs and of course in Linux the terminal can be used easily and to great effect. I find it a bit cumbersome to open a sophistaced GUI such as Chess Explorer just to combine databases. Pgn files are just well organized text files.
