Drago is a great program
So good to read Thanks!

Drago comes with the "-d 0" setting for pachi. However, pachi seems to require a lot of memory. For instance, I have to close my browser to make it work on my netbook with 1GB RAM.

For the same reason, pachi pattern files should be used only if a ...

Code: Select all

-d 0

Without the parameter pachi doesn't make a move (or very slowly).

Edit: Thanks for the update! Drago is a great program and I use it to play against engines.

OK, Thanks

This has been tested on xp and w7. I would be interested in if you could get more information by looking at the gtp window and comparing with what happends on the command line.

Could you tell me what test to do or how the get logs, please?

Mike Novack,
I'm not a developer of engines, that's why I didn't thought of that but it's very interesting.
I agree, it could be used to test, train and develop new engines.
We could get a monster like WOPR in WarGames

My intentions were just to benchmark them and watch the patterns they use.

Hello Gilles.

It's useful for people that likes to compare engines, though I know that the important thing is the game against humans and not against other machines.


I can't get Drago working with the Pachi engine. But that engine works properly with Gogui.

OK, thanks

My level is very low, around 14k, I'm just starting.
My PC is a 4 core i7 930 overclocked at 3.7GHz with 12GB of RAM.

Hello

¿What ranking system uses many faces of go? (to evaluate the user)

Nice.
Thank you

It would be nice if you also add the option to play one engine vs another engine, passing parameters to each one.

Hello

I've found that the go program Pachi has some memory problems in Windows.

I've been given a solution at their mailing list, using the option: max_tree_size=1024

But I've found another one myself
using the program
m
to patch the executable in order to enable the use of a little more memory ...

Where can I find a list of those words.

I've found some other configuration settings like

uct_param_search lock_free 1
uct_param_search virtual_loss 1
uct_param_search number_playouts 2

OK, thanks,
I was not sure
Then if I want to play a game engine1 vs engine2 I should deactivate it in order to avoid both engines to interfer each other, isn't it?

regards

Hello

What's the meaning of "pondering" in the settings of many GO programs?

I don't use gogui-twogtp since a long time ago but I've reacalled that something is missing from my instructions: I can't get the two engines to play the time I want, for example 10sec each.
You can modify this parameter at each engine's configration and from gogui-twogtp but I don't the proper way ...

Hello

I use directly the main GoGUI interface->Program-> there I add a program


"C:\Program Files (x86)\GoGui\gogui-twogtp.exe" -black "gnugo391.exe --mode gtp --chinese-rules -M 256" -white "fuego.exe" -size 19 -komi 7.5 -alternate -auto -computer-both



Or


"C:\Program Files (x86)\GoGui\gogui ...

That's amazing
