Sourceforge changed the links for downloading software, so you couldn't download GF1 anymore from this page.
Sorry, no new software available. |

In the mean time I've also written modules for playing Gipf and Zertz on Richards PBeM-server. So if you want to play one of these games against other human players and know how to use e-mail, go to pbmserv. |

GF1 won the Computer Olympiad tournament for Gipf in Maastricht. GF1 beat Gipfted 6 - 2 after some interesting games. The version of GF1 that played in the tournament isn't available yet, but you will be able to download it here shortly. It's at least twice as fast as version 1.03. The logfiles of the games played in Maastricht can be found on the main gipf website. |

I'm finally back to working on GF2. |

I've put a document here with
my ideas about playing Gipf over the internet. Please read it and send me
all your comments.
Version 1.03 has only been on the server for 2 days and there have already been about 80 downloads of this version. So it looks like there are a lot more users then the ones I know of. |

Verion 1.03, no major changes but lots of small improvements to make life easier when using GF1. Check the history-file for a full list of changes. |
20/2/2000
The GF1-homepage has moved (again). It's now hosted on sourceforge. The webpage should be a lot more stable, it's easier to download GF1 and there's a lot more possibilities for me (like mailing-lists and bug-reporting,...). |
25/1/2000
Here is version 1.02: This version makes it possible to use version makes it possible to use GF1 for playing games by e-mail, try it out. And because of license problems, GF1 now produces png-files instead of gif-files. |

Here is version 1.01: It solves some minor bugs and
improves the speed a the computer player. (It's still not as quick as
version 0.99.5, but it's a lot closer)
I probably won't make any changes to GF1 for some time now, I want to try making a Tamsk playing program. (For those who don't know, Tamsk is a beautiful game by Kris Burm where your playing pieces are hour-glasses.) If you have a problem with GF1, you can still send it to me. But if it's not a major bug, it may have to wait a bit for a solution. |
GF1 is a computer program for playing the 2 player
boardgame GIPF.
The program has a nice and easy to use graphical user interface.
You can play against another human (but the real game is better for that),
against the computer, or let the computer play against itself.
The computer player is good enough to beat even the best human players at
the moment (but it doesn't always win :-)).
The faster you computer, the better it plays. But even on a pentium 60,
the computer can be hard to beat.
(older versions of GF1 are available in the archive.)
