Wilhelm update

Post by Rafael B. Andrist »

Wilhelm v. 1.50 is available for download:

http://www.geocities.com/rba_schach2000/

What is new:

* MD5 sums and access for additional new 6-men (e.g. KPP-KPP) added, including new en-passant handling for KPP-KPP in the EGTB analysis mode
* bugfix for "mate in 127"-bug (introduced in version 1.49, pointed out by Kirill)
* EGTB analysis: longer piece paths can be visualized
* date of last successful check of EGTB files shows up
* initialisation of splitted EGTB files in arbitrary order

Thanks for update, Rafael! Very nice to have new version with KPPKPP support and new MD5 data.

I downloaded it and found that piece paths are still broken in some long checkmate positions. For example in KRRPKQ position:

Code: Select all

q7/7k/8/6R1/8/8/2P2R2/K7 w - -
I'll post pictures if needed.

Hi Kirill

I'm sorry, I cannot reproduce your problem on my machine. This makes it almost impossible to find out what causes this strange beheaviour.
