Houdini 1.5 under Fritz12 GUI

Post by Matioupi » Fri Dec 17, 2010 8:49 am

Hello,

is there a way to have Houdini 1.5 remembering the parameters set (e.g. tablebase path and split parameter) from one software start to another without having to manually reload the setting file ?

Regards,

Mathieu

I found a working way by editing the .uci file on path (on Vista)

C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\ChessBase\Engines.UCI

and adding

[OPTIONS]
Split_Depth=12
GaviotaTbPath=C:\Gaviota

section to the file

Is there a way to set "Threads" you ask? Why yes! Under the [OPTIONS] section add Threads=N (Number of Cores).

Example:

[OPTIONS]
Threads=4
Split_Depth=12
GaviotaTbPath=C:\Gaviota
