TVP files

TVP files

The TVP files are used to define table of VP. They are plain text files that conform Windows' INI file format (with only one section, [VP]). TVP file can be created and edited in any text editor, for example Windows' Notepad. Predefined TVP files are in VP subdirectory of the Teamy directory, typically in C:\Program Files\JFR\Teamy\VP:

nn.TVP standard VP table for nn boards, deuce is 15:15
nn-10-10.TVP Australian quotient VP table for nn boards, deuce is 10:10
ITALIAnn.TVP Italian VP table, nn/2 VPs for deuce
... and few other tables.

Here is ITALIA06.TVP as an example:

; ITALIAN VP TABLE 6:0

[VP]

MAX=6 ; 6 VP for maximal win

DEUCE=3 ; 3 VP for deuce

NULL=10 ; minimum IMPs to win MAX VP

1=3 ; * 3 VP for wining with 1 IMP
