AmiChess: New version with increased playing strength
Under the title link there is a new version of AmiChess which has been recompiled with StormC 4. Apart from some minor bug fixes, the WarpOS version in particular has benefitted from the recompilation.

Calculation speed of the WOS version could nearly be doubled! Thus AmiChess with the GNUChess engine is a match for "Crafty" (see Aminet), the chess engine with currently the highest plaing strength! I wish all chess friends a good time with the new version! (ps) (Translation: cb)

Filesharing: DirectConnect Client for AmigaOS
Diego 'DCR8520' Casorran has ported DCTC ("DirectConnect Text Client") to the Amiga (see also today's report). DCTC is a text-based client for the file-sharing network "Direct Connect". An early beta version of Amiga-DCTC is ready for download. Diego needs beta testers to support him in debugging the program.

More information about DC (DirectConnect) may be found on the website of the manufacturer publisher's website for the Windows version. Diego shows how one may get the initial results with DCTC. First you need a list of all usable HUBs:

run: hublist >ram:HubList


Each line of the list looks like this:

[DK]MoviezoneŠ|moviezone.dyndns.dk|Min 60 GB. [MZ-Group]|507|||||


Next you pick out a HUB (in the above example "moviezone.dyndns.dk"), additionally you must select a pseudonym and put in your IP Address (it should work with these minimal entries):

dctc --nick=YOURNICK -a=YourHost/IP --hubip=moviezone.dyndns.dk


If everything works, you'll now be connected to the HUB and the HUB will show a few bits of information (read it!) and now you may begin to send orders to the hub.

HINT: You might be banned for the HUB, when your combination of "Connection" and "Shared Bytes" is not meeting the standard. In such a case you should use the command "/CNX T3" to set the server to a higher connection speed ("Connection") or "/OFFSET 1234567890" to raise the "Shared Bytes" (the amount of the data you are offering).

Please BE SURE to read the supplementary documentation, and let us know your experiences with it.

Direct download: dctc-0.84.1.lha

[HINT: DCTC was unavailable on the master server (title link). The link for the direct download may in that case be accessed via a mirror]. (ps) (Translation: dm)
