Nakamura's position still drawn but it looks like he will blunder and lose the 4th game, leading to 2.5-1.5 for Dragon.

I find it amusing that people are posting sf12 evals in the chat, given how much stronger Dragon is in odds play.

A0lite is a python script, so no exe file. First you’ll need python3 and pip. I use virtualenv but you can install directly. Install badgyal (https://github.com/dkappe/badgyal) with pip install git+https://github.com/dkappe/badgyal.git . Then check out the master branch of a0lite. On Windows, a0lite...

HELP!! Having trouble trying to get these three to run...anyone been able to get any of these running in a regular GUI like Fritz, Shredder or Chess OK?....Leela Lite (A0 Lite) Python is a bit complicated to set up...(no actual exe file) Pychess shows a actual engine in the folder but not sure if i...

Sounds like cheating but I'm not an expert on that. So this is essentially an outgrowth of something I did with Ender a few years ago.

Mongolian. Of course they’ve been abandoned for 30 years, but is tha...

Thanks, Dietrich! Nurse's still a great attacker, judging by the game you posted. :D An argument against the ‘all NNUE engines play the same’ crowd. Here a fun one, 60+1 on the same sf12 executable.

The latest net, a long time in coming. 1.5x scaling looks about right, so the hard coded 1.25x of sf12 seems to work ok. NiNu-0.3 at 1.5x looks to be about 40 elo better than Ninu-0.2 at 2.5x. Enjoy.

Scores have inflated a bit, and it’s not completely helpless vs sf12 anymore. Both running 1+1 on the same sf12 executable.
