What version of Windows? And does your processor support at least SSE3?

Windows 8, and yes of course it has that support. Previous Crafty versions you have compiled have been fine.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the compile! Could you also possibly make a full-featured compiled version with the skill switch?

(I still haven't learned how to compile engines myself. How hard would it be for a non-programmer to learn how to do this?)

So you tried both versions that neither work? Did they crash instantly?

If you have Visual Studio 2008 or greater, I can upload my makefiles and instructions for you to download. Then isn't just 4 minutes of your time.

Also I am recompiling the previous 24.0 release with the /DSKILL option. I simply had forgotten to re-add it to my makefiles as I don't use it internally for testing.

I've just uploaded new compiles for you to try, and I've tested them on my older Phenom II x4 system. They work there, so I don't see why they shouldn't work on yours.

I'd love to give it a try. I have Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express installed (but never used). Is that what I'd need to do the compile? How would I download the makefiles and instructions? From your web site?

And thanks for recompiling with the /DSKILL option!

I don't think that will work. I use the stdint.h include file and I have heard complaints that this is not included in vs express 2010. I think there is a 2013 express now but I do not know if it includes the stdint.h stuff either...
