v0.34: * Fixed a bug in the reptition detection table (repetitions were not replaced so the table would eventually fill up) * Fixed a bug in SEE (where black king's attack squares were added to white's side) * Fixed a problem with loading the opening book (perfomance.bin was hard coded and hence the only opening book name that was accepted) * Fixed the perft-command at line input (wouldn't show the number) * Fixed a bug where endgame piece square tables always were used after opening phase * Fixed a bug in the xboard protocol where time was reported in milliseconds (not centiseconds) * Fixed a bug in the UCI protocol when the same position was analyzed numerous times (reptable was not updated) * Fixed a bug with probing pawn eval when no pawns were on the board * Fixed a bug with the draw probability in evaluation (it simply wasn't used) * Fixed contempt factor, should work now * Move generation slightly optimized * Some small optimizations here and there * Aspiration window researches now only resets the exceeded limit * This document was updated to more accurately explain how to install Mediocre in Winboard.
