Thank you!
Dowloaded all 3 new M1 engines

Here is my tournament Super Blitz 32 on Windows 10 under Parallels Desktop. There are also Stockfish 13 FF2 (Fat Fritz 2.1) and Stockfish 12 FF2 (Fat Fritz 2.0) https://1drv.ms/u/s!AkW3Hj0Gl_ewzyH6zDr ... s?e=1BOqJ2

Hi!

Only Oki-Maguro-v13 works on my Mac mini M1. Bluefish-v13 and SugaR 1.50 ICCF doesn't load on BacksiaGui, Cutechess and Hiarcs. (not an UCI engine, they say) EDIT: SOLVED with chmod 700 making them executables

[AlexChess]

I was referring to Bluefish v.13... they work fine,

If now only you could also compile Stockfish 13 FF 2.0... we would have the complete kit

Hi!

About results from test suite, on BangsiaGui M1 I can use only 2 / 8 processors for tournaments, to stay < 80° Celsius or it reaches 90+° Celsius using all cores after 10 minutes. But it is always 10 times faster than using Arena on Windows 10 4 CPUs under Parallels Desktop M1

Some GUI updates and a small cook book how to build these apps from the sources for your own:

WOW, I'm very happy if there will be another skilled programmer to compile engines natively for M1

My latest 3 minutes + 3 seconds /all SuperBlitz32 match between engines on Windows 10 ARM64 virtualized with Parallels Desktop 16.3 M1. I have discovered that native M1 engines are only 10-20% faster on M1 and only with Windows 10 ARM64 @65*-75° Celsius I can use 4 CPUs because doing the same with BanksiaGui M1 I easily reach 90° Celsius... and I still have a lot more very strong Stockfish derivates Intel x64 than with M1.
