Vas told me he'd do the fix in February - so the real testing will probably start in March. So I guess it will be ready in April. If we add some time as these predictions are always optimistic, I guess June 1st would be safe enough for me
He is right, fool's haste is no speed.
Rybka 4 Bugfix...... Soon!!!

I really wonder who´d care about a Rybka's update when everyone has a far superior engine available for free. Just don't get it.

I went through the Rybka code forwards and backwards and took many things.

If he cared at all, the update would have been out months ago. It does not take this long.
All Vas cares about now is his Rybka Cluster ****.

Re: Rybka 4 Bugfix...... Soon!!!
The Rybka 3 bugfix was never released despite similar assurances. Why would anyone believe he'll release a bugfix for Rybka 4 when it seems he's so interested in the cluster? Why make the promise in the first place, you just end up disappointing fans.

Who cares now anyway, If Vas does or does not bug fix an inferior chess program. It is a day late, and a dollar short.Leto wrote:The Rybka 3 bugfix was never released despite similar assurances.

June is not time for releasing a bug fix but release Rybka 5.
Rybka was leading now its lagging unless you have enough money to rent a super computer....

If Rybka 4 was the #1 engine, Vas could not care less about fixing it, just like Rybka 3.
But now that Houdini is handing Rybka its ass, Vas is desperate to close the performance gap.
See for example http://chessbomb.com/o/2011-tcecs1e/01- ... Houdini_a/ the ass-beating Houdini is giving Rybka right now.
