YSoccer is a game designed to be a remake of Sensible World of Soccer (SWOS) with new features and improvements.

Gameplay will be in the frenetic Sensible World of Soccer style with only one button to shoot, pass, etc. Volleys and bicycle kicks will be in the game and more weather conditions and other things to make it a little more actual.

Obviously, with a 1990's style game, graphics are not a huge feature, but YSoccer wants to tweak this as well. Players will be the same size, but with more details including shaded kits, more skin colors, hair, and shirts. The pitch will also be more detailed with new brand goals, stadium kinds, cameraman, etc.

The game is really feature packed including custom competitions, automatic and fixed player control mode, weather effects, multiple screen resolutions with zoom and rotation, replay and slow-motion, highlights, training mode, worldwide database, team and player editor with 21 standard kit styles, custom charsets, 10 skins colors and more than 40 different hair cuts.

Arasan is a chess program for Windows that includes an opening "book" with over 500,000 moves.

Arasan comes with its own graphical user interface, but it can also be used together with Winboard, a separate interface program, as well as other interfaces that follow the Winboard or UCI standard.

Freeware

Changelog

 1) Fix to handling of UCI_LimitStrength and UCI_Elo options. These can now
    be processed in either order and will set the search strength correctly.
 2) Revised tuning program. Only the "Texel" method is supported now. Tuner
    uses a "mean-squared error" objective and takes a labeled EPD file
    as input. Various optimization methods can be selected. Optimization
    steps are scaled appropriately based on parameter ranges.
 3) Changes to king cover and king safety scoring.
 4) Bug fix: Ensure hash move is always checked for validity (was not being
    done for evasions).
 5) Fix possible race condition updating root PV.
 6) Add some utility programs and Python scripts to source package.
 7) Considerable code cleanup and fixing warnings and possible bugs, notably
    in Syzygy tb code.

Changelog

All changes in the development version 11 have been included in the version 10, except for new engines, and the support of Linux.

Analysis of a game:

    Elo perfomance: it is a formule created by Michele Tumbarello that calculates the elo of each move and of the game. This formula is designed to do the more accurate results when using DeepFish as engine and a minimum time of 5 second per move.
    Stability control: a tab has been added that after finishing the analysis of a position with the parameters of time and depth indicated, it continues analyzing until in the last depths the calculated move is the same and the difference in the evaluation does not exceed the number of centipawns indicated.
    Lost points in the analysis graph, now can be hidden (Giovanni di Maria)
    Right button on the graphic, to save as a pgn (Giovanni di Maria)


Captures: added a new option "Material advantage". (Carlo)

Some internal improvings in transiberian (coded by Alfonso Solbes)

    improving detection of draws
    little performance improvement checking human moves


More control of the colors: Options/Colors/General


In addition, thanks to Max Aloyau, Ed Smith, philmath, vga, jojoB, Giovanni di Maria, Patricio Cainzos and MR's feedback.

Simutrans is a SimCity-style transport and economic simulation game. You can build the railroad networks with platforms, discharging quays, level crossings, signals and much more. Create your own bus company: transport people throughout the city and help make cities grow by laying out bus routes. Explore just how many industrial choices and connections are available.

Note: the graphics of the game are available through downloadable paksets. You can also use download-paksets.exe in the game's root directory.

Freeware

Changelog

Here is the 120.2.1 version of simutrans. It has many still new features (from the 120.2) for scripting (including scriptable ai, so everybody can make now his own AI without compiling), as well as many extensions for artists:

    groundobj with slopes (rocky shores)
    transparent graphics (better shadows and smokes, antialiasing)
    factory animations and sounds

It would nice to see these features in many paks.

But the SDL2 version had lot of errors with drawing and Japanese and other 2 byte unicode characters, and the drawing was much slower than neccesary.

Please report any bugs on the bug reports board. Also please tell if some pakset info is not up-to-date.

This release is build from svn revision number 8121.
