For those who like getting new toys to play with:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] See the Github release page for the
new shortcut commands when using McBrain from the command line.
McBrain is a
Stockfish chess engine with a few tweaks and features.
It uses the
Cerebellum book and code created by
Thomas Zipproth. With the Cerebellum book enabled , it will play about 30 ELO stronger than standard Stockfish. Other features/option include fast play when mate is found ( once McBrain sees mate, it will play very fast , convenient if you're testing). it includes
UCI_Limit_Strength and
UCI_ELO, a
delay option when using UCI_ELO so it will not play instanteously. It includes some
Matefinder code (not all) by
Joe Ellis and other tweaks to assist in analysis, finding strong moves and mates. And of course, it includes the latest updates from the
Stockfish development team which I am deeply grateful for.
Be sure to grab the latest Cerebellum book from Tom's site. It is updated on a regular basis.
