Reference 265 Now, you can change the settings that affect the playing style of the engine. Each engine will present the parameters that are relevant to its algorithms. Here are examples of the parameters you can set in most engines to influence their playing style. You will often be able to achieve a higher performance in specific situations (e.g., playing very fast games, solving tactical positions or studies). Different parameters may be available in different engines, not all of the ones given below may appear in your default. Note: The default configuration of the engine has been carefully tested. It is possible that in some circumstances other settings lead to better results, but for the best overall performance and strongest play it is recommened that you leave the default settings unchanged. Engine Parameters of the Engine You can modify the parameters of the engine. When you load an engine with the function key F3 you should select the engine that you want to load. There is a button entitled "Engine Parameters" which opens a dialog with some options: Log - Write stuff (like, communication with the GUI) to a file. xLog - Write stuff to a HTML file (seems to only work for Opera Browser...) Max CPU - The number of cores that Rybka will use, if this number is higher than your cores, Rybka will use them all. © ChessBase 2015
