BGBlitz2go 2.0.0 is out! The worlds smallest Backgammon expert!
New functions and quite some polish.
- a FIBS-client is included, so you can play at FIBS on every opportunity.
- BGblitz2go got a new much stronger AI that is trained over 20 million games. The memory needed is raised moderately.
- We added an "Extreme" level of play because a lot of devices nowadays are very capable. It uses 2-ply-evaluation. With the new
"Mips" entry in the main menu, you can test how many positions BGblitz2go can evaluate on your phone in a second. Depending
on your amount of patience you can try "Extreme" with values higher than 100. Values beyond 300 show nearly instantaneous moves.
The 2-ply evaluation is also available in the "evaluation" and "best moves" dialog boxes.
The "Extreme" levels playing strength is in the ballpark of human expert players, so don't complain we haven't warned you ;) (error rate < 2.0; rating > 1970)
- you can save positions in "pos"-format for later analysis
- you can play the next game with the dice reversed, in the case you believe BGBlitz2go always gets the better dice. In case you want
to try a different strategy you can also have the same dice.
- reduced the playing strength in easier levels for casual players
- improvements in usability
- a couple of bugfixes, two of them serious
The update is free, the old serial code should work.
We hope you will like it. If you have questions, just drop us a mail and We'd like to hear your feedback
you can get it at http://www.bgblitz2go.com
Have fun
