Yes Louis, in the first link, but not in Dann's build on dropbox link

The one called crusty works on old 64 bit processors.
The other one works on modern (AVX) 64 bit processors.

When you expand the archive, you should see a src folder.
There are two executable files in that folder

Really excellent at finding mates.

As I understand, the version you've linked to is not Joseph Ellis's complete matefinder engine. Rather, it is a version of Stockfish that includes just one of Joseph's ideas, that of disabling null move reductions when the king cannot move.

Here is the repo you want: https://github.com/jhellis3/Stockfish/c ... ate_finder

Sorry, I brought messed up things

It was the first link (J.Ellis) missing exe files, in your link I found SFcrusty.exe instantly

[Dann Corbit]

Right. The github site just has code.
