Thanks Graham, but I have to go and try to find it every time. A link would be useful.

Thanks Günther. You can tell him that his engine is just playing for the CCRL blitz list.

What does strategy do, does it make sense to change it and how to do it? Is there a way to disable logging? That file has already grown to 25 MB. Hey Gabor, one trick I've used in the past to handle similar situations where I wasn't lucky enough to have the author make a change :) Here is the trick...

I have started a tournament for the CCRL blitz list, using Günther's compile.

What does createdump do and how? Is it required in some way to run Izumy-chan?

Can you try this? I guess you have DotNet 8 already installed on your computer.

Thanks Günther.

I did not have DotNet 8 installed but now I do. This is what I get: id name Izumi-chan v0.5.4 id author Tomasz Jaworski option name MoveOverhead type spin default 10 min 0 max 5000 uciok isready readyok go depth 8 WARNING: allocated 27136B when running! info depth 1 score cp 29 nodes 20 time 6 nps 3...

Hi Tomasz,

I don't know the Ryzens, but an issue can be that the benchmark changes as the number of cores used changes. E.g. when I use 5 cores my benchmark is approximately 0.8 times the benchmark of the reference machine, using 6 cores (6 simultaneous tournaments) it slows down to about 0.85 etc. I change my...

The engine itself is 'interface.exe' if I'm not mistaken. Are all those dll's required to run it?

Also, a bit troublesome that all r's are replaced by w's, or is it my computer?

I have just announced 1.4.0 at CCC.

Hello Bruno,

I was a bit surprised at your post because Camel is already on our list.

Gabor

If so, How is it possible for an engine( Torch v1 ) to be registered in less than a month and be among the top 3 chess rankings? I don't understand what you don't understand. There is no registration. Engines are announced or found and we individually decide if we test one or not. Maybe I don't und...

Yes, this is what I wrote: "a CCRL member might pick it up for testing" Which means each member may decide if he tests it or not. I have decided not to test it. I am simply not interested. Others may decide otherwise. I can understand your frustration but that's how it is. My stance might ...

For my blitz tests I always use 256 MB hash when possible.

I attach most of the books I use regularly. I'm going to delete the file after a couple of days because it is huge.

EDIT: File deleted.

More games to follow. Opponent selection was not a success, I'll compensate for that next time.

Hi Claus, My CPU is an i7-12700K. The i7-4770K is our reference machine. We run the Stockfish 10 bench command to determine how our machine compares to the reference machine, that's why I use 90+1 instead of 120+1. Anyway, I think the time management of an engine should suit all machine speeds and t...

Gauntlet in progress. Watch out for this week's update.

Second run of CederChess 2 64-bit in progress.

Watching some games I noticed that it moves too quickly, sometimes almost instantly. It has more time at the end of the game than at the start. The time control I use is 1:30+1 (90+1).

Hello,

A rough estimate of progress over 2BR17?

Hello Sam,

I can't tell you an exact date but I have put your engine in my testing queue.

Gabor

Extremely good ones, well done. Only, oxidation spelling is suspect.

Thanks Gabor, I have mentioned 1400 ELO, but I can see on the CCRL Blitz list that the ELO scores are lower than they was a couple of months ago - at least for the weaker engines. Based on many games against the engines Ozwald, Phalp and Quokka, I estimate CederChess 2 to have an ELO in the 1250 ra...
