I developed a new chess engine based upon my previous engine Wasabi.
It should have similar playing strength, but offers a couple improvements:
- Windows 7 support
- Native executables (i.e. easy to configure in chess GUIs)
- Support for stopping ongoing searches (go infinite ... stop)
- Logs more UCI infos during search
- Name: Velvet
- Version: 1.0.0
- Protocol: UCI
- Author: Martin Honert
- Country: Germany
- Source Code: https://github.com/mhonert/velvet-chess
- Download: https://github.com/mhonert/velvet-chess/releases/latest
- Estimated strength: 2500+ ELO
In the future I will focus development on Velvet instead of Wasabi, due to the technical limitations.
Best regards,
Martin
