The files bitmaps.tgz and sound.tgz are available in your doc directory,

annotations performed by crafty - they should be unpacked into the
directory you normally analyze games into, and all should be fine...
The sounds are for move announcements. Unpack the archive somewhere,
and have a look at the 'speak' script to customize for your use, if
desired.

50 will drop it about 400 points. The curve is not linear, and the
closer you get to 1, the lower the rating.
