Hi,
From
http://www.hiarcs.com/pc_chess_hiarcs.htm
"Free Hiarcs X50 chess engine in UCI form. This engine is the strongest
ever HIARCS chess engine made available to the public."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I guess that there are Hiarcs engines as free downloads.
But, I cannot find any of them.
Any comments?
dajava,

What?
What kind of freeware is it?
I hardly can call it a free chess engine. :(

It isn't freeware.
It's two for the price of one.
Or one engine and a bonus engine at no extra cost.
If you buy a product in the grocery store, and you'll find a "free" gift
attached to it, it's as much free as that bonus engine.
How often do you complain in the store that such a gift is not really free
because you have to buy the product first and pay the full price for the
product before getting the "gift"?

It is free in the sense, that you buy Hiarcs 10 UCI. That's what you
buy. But when you buy, you get X50 for free.
Normal practise when giving an offer in shops, but not yet in the
computerchess world: Buy something and get something in addition.
Buy a chessprogram from Chessbase, and get GUI which probably already
have, and 1 engine (with exceptions).
I'm sorry for you, that there's no free download.
I surely found Hiarcs 10 UCI - with Hiarcs X50 UCI - worth the money :)

X50 is free when you buy Hiacs 10 UCI. You get an extra engine.
