Berserk 11 released. Number 2 free engine!?

[Modern Times]

About topic, you know, lc0 is free too.

Yes but for example Lc0 is definitely not #2 on my 10-core, 20 thread Intel 10900 with integrated graphics and no separate graphics card.

-+ (-#1932) evaluation means black is winning! That's wrong.

As I said before: Blame your GUI not knowing how to deal with score values like 31920.

Ok. This was Chessbase. Banksia shows correct:

Of course it would not be without a good seperate graphic card. In my computer lc0's games end in maximum 40 moves with a loss, it just plays too weak without a graphic card. But overall, in maximum potential, lc0 is number 2. But I gotta say, if Berserk improves like this that would not last long.

Fast progress. Bersrk 11.1:

ELO | 22.92 +- 11.14 (95%)
SPRT | 40/40.0+0.00s Threads=1 Hash=64MB
LLR | 2.94 (-2.94, 2.94) [-5.00, 0.00]
GAMES | N: 1928 W: 560 L: 433 D: 935

OK this is for X/Y time control. But who plays X/Y, when SF loses by time ?

I do, and SF never loses on time for me.

My testruns (SPCC-Ratinglist and UHO-Top10-ratinglist) of Berserk 11 are running since some hours here and I can say, that Berserk 11 intermediate results look very promising...Results probably tuesday morning (CET).

Stay tuned!

Ratinglist-testruns of Berserk 11 finished.

Also take a look at the EAS-Ratinglist, the world's first engine-ratinglist not measuring strength of engines but engines's style of play:

Berserk 11.1 with a major bug-fix for anyone testing without an increment or in cyclical TCs.
https://github.com/jhonnold/berserk/releases/tag/11.1

Fortunately we currently test with 4'+2" instead of 40/3 or 40/4 repeated as we did in the past...
