Hello Frank,

Great work as usual... many thanks for your enormous efforts and since many years that you are doing for us!!

Yes... I noticed that Chiron performed very good in your rating, I see a BIG improvement, no patience to include Chiron in my scratch tournament too


Btw, I wonder a lot about your test results...
Lets' see the current SCCT scratch champion what will be the performance in your rating

Greetings,

Hi Sedat,

you are speaking from DiscoCheck

I am waiting of a bugfix Version. I have much Problems with DiscoCheck. Often after the book moves engine do nothing and Shredder GUI crashed (without ponder all works fine). Furthermore, a Little endgame Problem with ponder = on.

But you can be sure ...
If a bugfix Version available DiscoCheck will directly to 101% add in SWCR2.

Thanks for your nice words about myself.

But my time I do so many things for Computer chess is Long years over. So many People do here a great work. To work a bit on SWCR2 is fun only.

Perhaps middle of the year, I make the SWCR2 with more Hardware bigger. For the Moment I am not sure to hold the energy on the SWCR2, so reason to start slowly.

Thanks again!

Hello Frank,

Yes, agreed...there are many others who are doing great work too

Btw, I plan to add Hiarcs 14 to my scratch testing, but Hiarcs 14 engine takes 5-6 seconds in every load, what is your opinion ?

When I change Compatibility mode to Windows XP/7...then it appears a message under ShredderGUI: this is not an UCI engine

Do you have same problems by Hiarcs 14 ?

Really this is very strange ... and as far as I remember same bugs I have seen before again by Hiarcs 14

Best,
Sedat

Sedat,

try UCITimeout=45 as Parameter.
I solved with this Parameter the same Problem in SWCR1 with Hiarcs 13.2.

With Hiarcs 14 I don't used this Parameter. All works fine here.

Thanks Frank, but i see Hiarcs 13.2, I am talking about Hiarcs 14

But however I tried with your recommend values and that strange loading (6-7 seconds) continues as before (my system: Windows 8.1 64-bit i5-3210M 2.50 Ghz)
