Re: New engine releases 2019
Will post some exe's tomorrow AM - headed for some sleep right now.MikeB wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2019 8:20 pm Minor update to McCain X2 , to fix some 'Play by Elo/Level" coding errors pointed out by Ferdy. Also includes 2 minor patches from Stockfish. New Release is "X2a"
Will post new exe's as soon I have them. It's the weekend , so I'm not sure one I will have them - but I would say the 24 to 48 hours at the latest and perhaps sooner.
Current X2a source can be obtained here:

Re: New engine releases 2019
Thank you for your question Günther!
I only have some 4 core AMD processors, so it's tested with 4,. (And it's an improvement with 4, to be sure) I didn't implement a limit though, so conceivably 128 might also work..
Because of your question I looked at the code to see if there is something to be said about a theoretical max, and I think I discovered a bug! I am unsure if there would be any improvement beyond 4 cores..

Re: New engine releases 2019
Has Neurone 11052018 Dev (aka Neurone XXVII dev) been mentioned anywhere outside of the GSEI web site? I see only XXVI in the CCRL rating list and on the RWBC chronology page. It's not that new (exe dated March 15 2019), but it is new to me.
