Chess engine: Willow 2.7

 

Willow - UCI engines   Rating CEDR=2202
A chess engine I am currently working on, written in C (WORK IN PROGRESS)
Compiled in Windows, works on BanksiaGUI with limited UCI support right now.

v.2.7:
Willow has been rewritten in 0x88! The resulting code has twice the NPS of Willow 2.6.
Other features added:
Static evals for NMP and RFP
Improving for RFP
TT replacement scheme
LTC test result against Willow 2.6: 1000 games, 504 wins, 393 draws, 103 losses, ELO difference: 130 +- 10
It is likely that Willow is near 2700 CCRL strength at this point.
two exes are included: one with 256mbs hash, one with 32mbs hash. I promise I will add more options, I was just in a rush to get this update out.
