Arena problems with Houdini...

Post by SSTATHIS » Thu Jan 13, 2011 9:38 pm

There is a problem when I use Houdini 1.5 w32 with arena 3.0. After book moove always I take the message "Arena Adjudication. Illegal move".
The problem occur with ALL Houdini versions (older one..)!

With Arena 2.0.1 there is no problem.

I have windows xp pro greek version (32-bit)

Any solution?

Make sure that you have checked (or un-checked !) "Ponder" at two places in Arena:

1) Engines - Ponder
2) Engines - Manage - UCI - Ctrl+1 - Ponder

That should solve your problem.

Good luck,

Unfortunaly it doesn't work...
It works only if ponder is off (until now)
