Played many blitz/bullet games in debug (-Zi) and non-debug modes, and seems stable.
untar/unzip the source
cd src
copy ..\config.h.in config.h
notepad config.h
add:
#define VERSION "0.8.7"
notepad amy.h
add:
"typedef unsigned __int64 hash_t;"
in same place as:
"typedef unsigned __int64 ran_t;"
notepad tbindex.cpp
replace:
extern "C" int TB_FASTCALL L_TbtProbeTable
with:
extern "C" int L_TbtProbeTable
notepad random.c
replace:
double result = (double) Random64();
with:
double result = (double) (__int64) Random64();

Hi Lance,
Do your methods for building amy (under mingw32 and vc6) create binaries that can use opening books? (i.e., did you have to install Berkeley DB first and point to its path somehow?)
Thanks,
Michael

When you compile for Berkeley DB, you don't have to install anything.
Everything you need is linked in.
From his description, he is not compiling for Berkeley DB or pthreads.
