Thank I didn't notice that link. I've linked to the newer version. I understand your most current version would not be public. But, if you release another public one just let me know.

Today I have found faster (multicore) computer to reside on. Seems I am ready to start learning. Hope my father will have time to teach me now Wink. I hope he will let me search parallel and MCTS like.

Yes, there are changes, but as I let my fother to change AEI as well, he should finish the update before posting.
Seems there are no problems with AEI, but my fother have to make changes in the rabbits client as well and he has some technical problems with widgets. He tries to alocate half an hour a day to continue, but it's not that easy to find it ... I hope in a week it would be corrected.
So at the moment I am waiting for the rabbits bot to be improved to reflect AEI changes as well.
 
So for my learning ... I am starting to learn capture evaluation. I already somehow evaluate frames. I am going to somehow evaluate other capture threats and goal threats as well.
After it I should change it somehow to ... parameter dependent and to start testing of the "best" parameter values.
 
More important planned change is in my search method, but it is still far away.
 
But I want to persuade my fother to let me play in this year postal mixer. I hope I will swith to MCTS in the middle of the games. It would be interesting to learn during the mixer and I am looking forward for it.
Sure when I decide to think about a move I should not allow any lessons till I decide the move.
I would try to ask for general ideas only, not to consider any specific position during the lessons.

Previous versions were very small. This looked it like it would be more than 100 MB so I aborted the download. Maybe you have log files in the zip.

Yes Omar, the zip contains instalation files of python and Eclipse. I should remove them ... and make smaller version.
 
... I have not expected you to make a copy of it here ... for that case the smaller version would be appropriate.

Done, the original archive was renamed to bot_Hippo120330inst.zip, the resulting archive is 150 times smaller.

Hello
 
How to make bot_hippo running on a W8 computer. I've got python 2.7, wxpython for python 2.7. Is the .zip complete ? How am I supposed to make the bot work for a local game for example ? If I simply double click or "roundrobin.pyc", it doesn't work, I've got the following error in the console:
 
"could not find or load main class arimaa3.ArimaaEngineInterface"
 
what can I do to make everything work ? How is it supposed to be run ?
 
Thanks you very much. Wink

I have not experimented under Win8. The roundrobin.cfg contains  
cmdline = s.bat
in my case where s.bat has
Code:

d:
cd \Eclipse\workspace\bot_Hip\bin
"c:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java" arimaa3/ArimaaEngineInterface

in it (differs from comp to comp).  
I have s.bat in the aei-1.1 directory together with the configs.
So just invoking ArimaaEngineInterface in java from appropriate directory. So the same will be possible from .pif or so.
 
I have stopped experimenting when it started to work so there is surely more options how to configure it.
 
Simillar configuration is for gameroom, but you need to know the password or create your own account.
 
Hmmm, to your question ... I don't understand the java error messages well, but are you sure you have the *.class files in the directory the java is invoked?
There are src and bin directories ... Eclipse invokes javacompiler to precompile the source codes src\*.java to bin\*.class. I am not sure how are *.class files platform dependent.

Hello, thanx for your help.
 
Everything runs smoothly now. Unfortunately for Hippo, I was able to defeat it in our only game (material sacrificing proved efficient) Cheesy
 
I'd like to use Hippo as a base for my own bot. Unfortunately, you .zip does not contains the metadata to build your project with Eclipse.
 
Do you have a clue how to use your sources as a base ? I created a new project and imported your files but I am unsure how to do then.

I have added bot_HipMeta.zip to the directory. I hope it helps.
 
BTW: There is some dead code from jdb, which I have never used ... but it could have be OK. In chat archive you can read that I am converting the bot from copying version to do/undo version. It is still not debugged and as slow as the original version so it is not pulished yet.
 
The advantage of the version is the moves are directed, what could be used later in the move evaluation (partially independent on position evaluation).
 
If things would go smothly the new version would be published soon ... (in 1 or two months? Sad) so better thing is to start with evaluation rather with the turn generation or search ... but nothing is guaranteed Wink

There is new version of source codes bot_Hippo130408.zip in the directory hrosi.dyndns.org/arimaa.
It is do/undo version with directed moves in the contrary to the previous position copying one with undirected moves.  
 
The change of speed is hardly noticable.
