NN in Scorpio 3.0.11 is not loaded

[Angle]

I many times tried to use the neural network in Scorpio 3.0.11 but every time it is not loaded and Scorpio plays with HCE.

I choose "use nn' in the UCI configuration window and put
nn_path: D:\Chess\Arena 3.5.1\Engines\Scorpio\Networks\ens-net-12x128.pb
i.e. the full path to the NN. It doesn't work. I tried with MCTS on and off.

Can anyone help?

Could you show the contains of debug.

In my test it shows:

Code: Select all

setoption name nn_path value d:\Chess\Engines\Scorpio\nets-scorpio/ens-net-12x128.pb

...

Neural network loaded !

You have to use "scorpio.bat" as the engine instead of "scorpio" in Arena.
The install intructions are here https://github.com/dshawul/Scorpio/blob ... INSTALL.md
Basically what you have to do is download install.bat and run it from the command line.
If there is a problem please post the output of the install.

Hi, Daniel!
Thank you for your assistance! Unfortunately, it doesn't run with scorpio.bat. The log file of installation as a WB engine is here:

Hi,

How did you do the installaiton of Scorpio ?
You have a network directory "D:\Scorpio\Networks" which the installer will not create by itself.
I think you either renamed it or manually installed it downloading networks and other things by yourself.
If you followed the install instructions, you should have a "Scorpio/nets-scorpio" directory if you installed it properly.

Also the egbbdll for NNs will be in a "Scorpio/nnprobe-windows-cpu" directory. Currently you have it wrong
as both "egbb_path" and "egbb_files_path" set to "D/Scorpio/egbb" path which is wrong.

The instructions in the INSTALL.md are simple and you don't have to edit scorpio.ini manually or anything.

a) Download install.bat and put it in a directory you want to install Scorpio.
b) Then run "install.bat" on the command line and let it download networks etc and install everything for you.
c) Use scorpio.bat as the engine in your favourite GUI

This will work so I suggest you follow these instructions. You can read INSTALL.md for further guidance.

Thank you very much, Daniel! I was so stupid trying to install everything manually! Now it works fine! I added Scorpio to my new tournament conceived for NN(UE) engines only.

I've been having a lot of issues too and still in Linux. However in Windows I found adding the NN directory to your path will work then you can use the exe and not the scorpio.bat (Chessbase/Fritz/etc don't like .bat files).

Click Windows, start to type "Edit environment variable", click it, click PAth, Add new and point to the nn-probe-windows-gpu directory.

Double-check the scorpio.ini file as well to make sure the paths are correct.

Hope that helps.

First, his problem was that he installed Scorpio manually, which I do not recommend, and this has already been solved if you missed his last post.

As to your issue on linux, I am pretty sure installing Scorpio on Ubuntu Linux, which is what I use for development, is far more easier than on windows. If you followed the simple instruction in INSTALL.md and failed, please post the log file here. I repeat them here:

a) Download the install script install.sh or install.bat and put it in a directory you want to install scorpio
b) Run the install script on the command line and watch it download and install everything for you
c) Use either scorpio.bat and scorpio.sh as the engine not the engine executable scorpio/scorpio.exe. For chessbase/fritz GUIs use the workaround mentioned in INSTALL.md

I am so accustomed to users commenting "scorpio has issues / doesn't work etc" to "I can not read the manual but expect it to work like the old one engines with one single binary and no dependencies .." Well times have changed and running NN engines do require lots of dependencies ...

I added Scorpio to my new tournament conceived for NN(UE) engines only.

Note that the default installation uses NN by default, it will use a 12b on CPU or a 20b on GPU if you have one.
So if you want to use NNUE on CPU, you have to modify some things. Edit scorpio.ini like below, or add them to the command line of the engine

Code: Select all

mt           4     # I think you have 4 threads machine
montecarlo   0
use_nn       0
use_nnue     1
nnue_scale  256    # If you use dh-0.2.bin net that comes with the installation or 128 if you use a SF NNUE net

The instructions in the INSTALL.md are simple and you don't have to edit scorpio.ini manually or anything.

a) Download install.bat and put it in a directory you want to install Scorpio.
b) Then run "install.bat" on the command line and let it download networks etc and install everything for you.
c) Use scorpio.bat as the engine in your favourite GUI

Daniel, I have problems.

1. Fritz does not want to install Scorpio when I select the batch file.
2. If I select the exe it does install but then I have an entirely different problem: I am lost amongst the parameters. E.g. are Use NN and Use NNUE exclusive, or can I use both (and which combination is best)? By default nn_path_e and nn_path_m are the same (both pb) but I find pb and uff files in the directory. And which pairs should I use from the 4? Is there an explanation of all the parameters?

Regards,
Gabor

Hi Daniel,

I downloaded install.bat, double click it and just waited it to finish. Then I Installed the scorpio.bat as an UCI engine.

This is the Arena debug file:

# NN settings
#------------------------
# use_nn                 - turn off/on neural network
# nn_cache_size          - neural network cache size in MBs
# nn_path                - path to neural network
# nn_type                - type of neural network (0=scorpio, 1=lczero)
# device_type            - CPU or GPU
# delay                  - Sleep threads for this amount. Set this to 1
#                          if you are using way too many threads than you
#                          have physical cores (maybe when >16x more).
# float_type             - inference precison for tensorrt = FLOAT/HALF/INT8
# wdl_head               - network has WDL head (e.g JH networks do)
# win/draw/loss_weight   - weights for WDL resp in precent, range is [0...1000]          
# min_policy_value       - minimum policy value in per mill. For 1%, set to 10
# max_collisions_ratio   - percentage of (allowed number of collisions) /  (threads per device)
# max_terminals_ratio    - percentage of (allowed number of terminals) /  threads
# batch_size_factor      - when not 0, batch size is determined by multiplying number of
#                          multiprocessorbs by this number. If 0, batch size equals number of threads
# scheduling             - scheduling of threads on multi-GPU systems.
#                          FCFS = first-come-first-served
#                          ROUNDROBIN = round robin scheduling
