About "plugin mode"

From version 5.0, BoxSearch support "plugin mode", which meas that you can run BoxSearch as a solver plugin from other application such as Sokoban++. To run BoxSearch as plugin, download the package (plugin dll inside) and follow the instructions of your sokoban program.

To sokoban game developers: you need both BoxSearch5 executable and plugin dll to call BoxSearch solver, and they should be put in same folder. The plugin dll follows "Solver SDK" made by Joris Wit, author of Sokoban++. Visit http://www.joriswit.nl/sokoban/ for the SDK.

FreecellTool: Solve any freecell game automatically!

Download link1        Download link2         Online Register

FreecellTool is a tool to help you solve any freecell game. It automatically catches the game you are playing, solve it and show the solution. It can operate on the freecell program automatically.

        New! v2.1 features:

  •         Enhanced solve algorithm more than 3 times faster than old version. It will not become slower while lots of states has been searched. If you set "max search states number" in option to a large number, the tool can handle any puzzle ID. For example, It proves that "puzzle No.-2" has no answer in 5 minutes on my P4 CPU.

  •         Now the tool can generate puzzle directly. The first 1,000,000 is the same as Microsoft's game. This can save a lot of time while doing batch solve. You can see what the puzzle looks like if its ID is out of Microsoft's game ID range.

  •         Now support "retry" in batch solve. This will help if you want to go through a large range of game ID.
