This release adds opening book functionality to Megalodon. This is currently toggleable through the UCI option OwnBook
. By default, it is set to false. In order to successful use this functionality though, it is required to have a openings.txt
file in the same directory that you run Megalodon. The file must be formatted such that on each new line there is a sequence of moves notated with the UCI format, nothing else. We have provided an example openings.txt
file in the openings
folder.
