It would be nice if an executable was provided,
the interest in this project would grow. :idea:

Thanks for the links.

@velmarin: correct!

I do not understand why to pay for the executables and be a patreon? Impudence!!!

This must be free of charge for everybody, because it uses the free Lc0 code and all chess engines fans have the possiblity to see the project grown and to get more supporters....

I don’t take a stand on whether it is right or wrong, but Allie doesn’t use lc0 code. Also, the network uses lots of non-leela training data.

I love your archaic language, though. “Impudence!!” ROTFL.
Fat Titz by Stockfish, the engine with the bodaciously big net. Remember: size matters. If you want to learn more about this engine just google for "Fat Titz".

The source code is available here: https://github.com/manyoso/allie

You can download that and build it on Linux, Windows, or MacOSX. The windows binary I made was tested by others as I don't even have a Windows machine with a GPU. That said, when I make a first release following tcec div4 most likely I will put up a windows binary on github using the release feature.

I am unfamiliar with QT, I get this error when I try it on Windows.
A link is appreciated if someone has got it.

Allie uses Lc0 NN backends code: https://github.com/manyoso/allie/tree/master/lib/neural

Does that mean you’re going to throw another tcec hissy fit?
