Chess engine: Kayra 1.0 (is a Stockfish based) - tests from tomorrow!


From author:
Kayra chess engine is a Stockfish based engine and it's an early development version. I have been working on this chess engine for a short time.
Kayra is not an another Stockfish clone. I made very serious changes in the most critical parts of Stockfish, especially in the evaluation section.
I made very agressive changes more than 50 parameters in the evalution code. I made very aggressive changes at psqt and pawns sections. I changed more than 250 parameters at psqt and pawns section. I weakened Stockfish a lot at the start of all these critical changes, but I'm finally getting close to balancing it.
Although I made very critical changes in Stockfish codes and more than 300 parameters, the fact that Kayra didn' t perform badly gave me hope for the future. This version of Kayra is an early test version. If it reaches the level I want, there is no doubt that I' ll publish Kayra as open code source chess engine.

Kayra engine is available only for testers cooperating with us.

  2. Hi, if you only change 300 values and parameters in evaluation or search of stockfish code, it's just another clone ! If you changed 50% of lines in all code then you could say it's not a clone.
