The Huntsman 1

Post by chessica »

Hi, does anyone here know if the huntsman1 needs a network to reach full performance?

This: nn-ad9b42354671.nnue seems not working.

Runs without NNUE also, default is nn-6877cd24400e.nnue
with option Use NNUE default unchecked (not used), if you check MateSearch (also default, value true) NNUE isn't used neither, even with this one option (Use NNUE) checked, regards

No, The Huntsman only uses classical eval by design.
For the next release I will delete all NNUE stuff.
And I will probably provide better documentation.

Just an observation. In my 500 position test Huntsman with 1 core only scores 476 and with 6 cores 483. No big difference :o .
