Can someone tell us those famous piece parameters by Larry Kaufman for the Rybka 2.3 engines?
Thanks

In that version some extra evaluation algorithms were added, which didn't improve (or slightly weakened) Rybka but seemed reasonable to Larry. So it wasn't about piece values, although they may have been changed, too, for that version.

It was different piece values.

Aha, so no evaluation changes? Looks like I confused it with Rybka 3 human.

Maybe. Rybka 3 human had weight changes throughout the eval, not just piece weights.

any way to tweak normal rybka, by ourselves to make play more like a human version?

To quote Larry from the beta test forum:

Here are my final recommendations for Rybka 4 Human version, and how I derived them. Leave pawn and queen unchanged, raise all the minors by 24 cp, and raise the rooks by 12 cp. (...)

So basically you can create some kind of human version with those parameters :)

No, actually it became defaults for 2.3.1 and onwards, AFAIK.
