Re:Opening Book/Database for Fritz 7 - 2005/11/04 15:06
should only choose the variations you play, and also eliminate all games where there isn`t at least one e.g. 2300 player, also you might have to put it to 2600 to start with, and you also need to eliminate blitz etc. games and put limits of how many games need to be played on that line before e.g. your engine is allowed to play it, but then that needs many many games from every variation, so you probably need to mark what lines it plays, but those markings will get more or less removed every time you add games to those variations, and sometimes even variations will disappear (like 1...Nf6). It`s also helpful to chose only games that were at least a draw for your side, to further get better quality. It can be quite a drag to get to know it all. Chessbase does all that (the lite having a limit of games) It can take a lot of time to prepare one pack of games from the downloaded, but it`s the only way to get quality and not use 100s of MBs every time one puts some piece of ECO there. For people who want ready made there is Powerbook of some 600 MB that is ready made for you at www.chessbase.com shop/Fritz stuff; but I am not sure about its quality, and are you going to follow any line some higher tournament player played somewhere, years ago? The engines can play high quality moves even at blitz with todays cpu speed all by themselves, beating many lines humans play. One idea is to start form a clean book and get the ECOMast.pgn (free) that has mostly the ECO variations only (actually more in many cases and some line are completely missing that should be there), and it doesn`t have too many crap lines and crap moves, and then add to that what ever one needs; it`s some extra work, but the book might not get bigger than 1-10 MB.
