Crafty is a rapidly developing chess engine with more and more features
|
|
|
|
|
being added regularly. It can play, analyze, and even annotate games
|
|
|
|
|
for you. Crafty can utilize tablebases; these are available for freebsd
|
|
|
|
|
in the related ports.

The files bitmaps.tgz and sound.tgz are available in your doc directory,

|
|
|
usually /usr/local/share/doc/crafty. The bitmaps are for html
|
|
|
|
|
annotations performed by crafty - they should be unpacked into the
|
|
|
|
|
directory you normally analyze games into, and all should be fine...

The sounds are for move announcements. Unpack the archive somewhere,
|
|
|
|
|
and have a look at the 'speak' script to customize for your use, if
|
|
|
|
|
desired.

22.1 -> New "skill" command that can be used to "dumb down" crafty.
|
|
|
|
|
"skill <n>" where n is a number between 1 and 100. 100 is max (default)
|
|
|
|
|
skill. Skill 70 will drop the playing Elo by about 200 points. Skill
|
|
|
|
|
50 will drop it about 400 points. The curve is not linear, and the
|
|
|
|
|
closer you get to 1, the lower the rating.
