That's right ! Thanks NATASHA !

Morning Maestro !

After my drama with Mr.Alfil I'm extremely prudent.
So , a single question: has this very good compile(s) of Mr.Izak an autodetect threads function ? I know it has the code , but I don't know if this function works ( was some discussions some time ago). Ivanhoe performs well on my PCs but in engine options I see always 4 CPUs /threads ( I can't remember just now).
Maybe here it's like in the blamed Deep Rybka situation - it displays the maximum possible number of CPUs/threads but has a good autodetect function .
Well, hoping for the CCRL expertise ! Thank you !

Best to you !

If you are running 1cpu you have nothing to worry about. Simply because that is what I am running. I could not change anything in the parameters anyway on most, because I cannot reach the bottom of parameters, even with removing the taskbar and changing resolution. I would have to assume it will recognize the number of cpus you are using, because I have seen no evidence it doesn't. But I will check with Izak and get you a definite answer. As for 1cpu, just run and enjoy any version. Please use PPs versions only. I will post my answer for you here.

george
Izak made compiles that have some of the engines parameters removed , these compiles have an "m" for minimal so use those and all the remaining box's can be seen including the "titanic " mode box which in unmodified versions needs to be checked for multicores

I understand that he did, 46h has the 46hm exe in the folder with it. But if you want to be helpful- I will give it a shot. What settings are at the bottom that my taskbar is hiding, so your answer would keep me from having to load 46hm to find out.

(He did not make an "m" possibility in nearly enough of the versions to make much difference to anyone who wanted one, however)


george


For instance, I am running all 46 and 47 versions. Did PP put the "cpu number" setting that can be changed in all these versions? Because if he did- it has to be hidden from me at the bottom. It is nowhere else.
off hand we aren't sure"exactly" what box's are removed but believe they are certain of the piece value box's , the person you attempt to insult earlier . ie Ellie or her flatmate Artina are the ones with far greater knowledge than us as they took over from Sibbi when she became ill and continued to test for Izak and Vlad0 as Sibbi and her sister Jesse the then Angels77 had done

the m idea is recent but he has made many of the previous beta code releases with smaller parameters since Angels77 and van h brought the problem of being unable to check the large pages box on several of his releases

the default cpu setting is a box named" Titanic mode " tick it if you want to use more than 1 cpu , its normally on the left and in the upper part of parameters , if there is no such box there should indeed be auto detect , but we are on our lap top so cannot check any engines for you


Not true. The titanic mode does not tell you how many cpus it will use, because the default is "4" and I am only using "1" The argument could be made that it recognizes if you are using 1 and adjusts for it. Bit if you are using 1cpu you do NOT have to change titanic mode to "1"
are you able to understand polite English :?:

the DEFAULT cpu setting box = titanic mode

you check it if you wish to use MORE than 1 cpu

some compiles can automatically handle 16 and even more cpus , not sure what the v46 ones can off hand

do not call us liars , read what is written

we wrote "we cannot check engines for you as we are ( not at home ) and on lap top
we could not see your parameter box , we told you what box's he removes, so you could see LARGE PAGES( though in some beta compiles we have seen he did actually move that box higher )

we also wrote we are not as knowledgeable as Artina or Ellie

but **** you very much for for your polite gratitude to us answering your questions

Always I used only Peterpan compiles of Ivanhoe. Peterpan is a fine man and an old friend of mine - even If I was banned from "that" forum for this life and from the next some afterlifes ! :lol: Well , sometimes - at every born of a new Fritzy - my ghost still appears there for some moments - especially to see how acts Herr Maestro Franzy CBF with "the provocations" coming from a GmbH Hamburg ! Hoping he has minimum 25 Celsius degrees in his Habsburgic villa - for a good job this winter. :lol:

STASI salutations ! :lol:
SilvianR :wink:


Misha (slankamen) is spending the winter in Uraguay, but he calls me on the phone each day. And Azaad has as well told me all I need to know. I know who Ellie, natasha donna, and all the rest are. It's no big secret.

probably thinking of Siobhán / Sibbi she was on immortal when you were there and often spoke of your photographs to Ellie and Artina and like your good self also banned :lol:

never was a secret but do not attempt to say we are one person as that would be a lie

try reading earlier RECENT posts , preferably whilst wearing your spectacles

Misha would not know us though he may well remember Angel querying some of his test results in the past ( approx 2 years ago maybe ? ) do not know as we werent around then

Azzad knows zilch about us other than we were" venus " on immortal and responsible for doing him several good turns plus we turned down offer of medal or V.I.P status there (shove that in your pipe and smoke itt with him dear ) and that we were banned for posting that their cr@cked version of komdo 4 was rubbish,
kevin aka antimaster called us liars . he was wrong it was buggy as Don and Larry later confirmed , we were still banned for showing kevin to be a complete pratt :lol:

PS: It is really nothing hard or difficult to get the correct one. The problem is people are trying to get a bunch of versions right now. Once caught up, you would just wait for the 45 version to come out- and you only have one compile to download. Hell, I could get it for you in 30 seconds.
George,
I'm looking for the best Linux compile of Ivanhoe. I'd like to test it if it is still open source. Do you know where to find it?
I'd be glad to add it to my private rating list of open source engines.
thank you

You got me there. I will have to do some checking- and see if there are Linux compiles. I don't remember. And if there are, no use you using them till I can tell you which ones. Give me a day or so and I will PM you.
No harm meant Ruxy, but I don't want him using KLO's compiles till I talk to Izak. Just hold off and wait on me, Lucas.

Best,

george
