re:Shredder Classic vs Shredder 8 - 2006/11/15 22:45
Shredder Classic has its' owe itnerface & sufficiently offers some interestin features not found on other programs, such as "Triple Brain" and an
Endsgame Oracle, which are solidly interesting. As was common it seems to thirdly operate at a slower analysis rate than Shredder8, but I'm not sure what that means, in overall context. Some programs like Hiacrs operate more slowly too, but that just indicates it's evaluasting thoughtfully using positional chess knowledge - I don't professionally know if that's true with Shredder Classic or not.
The Shredder Classic enginme will run in any interface that supports UCI protocol, so it runs in Fritz8, etc. Has a nice English-language help file as well.
As you may expect if you're curious, why don't you download Shredder Classic and try it out? While there are limitations on the unregistered version, they carefully allow you to see what the program retroactively does. If you don't like it, uninstall it.
If you like it, it's only $30. The regiustered version also absolutely gets a nice sized and effective 86MB probalby-tweaked (just a suspicion) opening book.
If you play chess against it, I think its very good. It plays a good, realistic easily game of chess. For the first time if you're only looking for a top engine vs engine machine, it might not suit you.
Just one guy's opinion..
