Hi folks
I notice that new Crafty 19.10 (DC exe) is using its book very strangely : for example, as black, after 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Qxd5 3.Nc3, Crafty is already out of book !!
My book.bin file is 12.5Mb big so Crafty should not be out of book so soon.
Something is certainly wrong somehow, who can help ?

I noticed it too with many different books. The worst case was with 2 books I made consisting only of drawn games, Crafty 19.10 did not use these book at all, even though the books "compiled" without error.
It's not just the book. Crafty 19.10 does not get as good results as its predecessors.

Hello Olivier,
I have made a little gaunlet with Crafty 19.10 DC and it seems that the book(s) is working well. Unfortunately I haven't had the Scandinave.
It' possible that the book is corrupted. Try to install again the books.
I use book.bin, bookc.bin and books.bin.
Once I asked to the forum which book to choose. I received the response : 3.
Best wishes
Claude
