Defenchess is a free, open source UCI chess engine written in C++.
This project has been created purely as a hobby and a challenge for the developers to create a strong chess engine.
The engine is meant to be used with a UCI compatible chess GUI.
Parameters:
- Hash – the size of the transposition table in megabytes. (default 16)
- Threads – the number of threads used while searching. (default 1)
- SyzygyPath – the path to the Syzygy Tablebase WDL/DTZ files. (default empty)
- MoveOverhead – the minimum amount of time in milliseconds to be left on the clock while moving. Should be increased if the engine is losing on time. (default 100)
- Ponder – this parameter is just to tell GUIs that the engine is capable of pondering. The engine will respond to the “go ponder” command regardless of it being set to true or false.
- UCI_Chess960 – this parameter will let the engine play Chess960 (FRC) when set to true.
