Fire 8.2 the only engine playing without a NN?
Still proving to be a hard out!

Why aren't you using Fire 8.NN? It's much stronger than non-NNUE 8.2.

Hi Vernon,

If thats the case, could you update Koivisto to either 7.14 or stronger? If you are unable to compile yourself you can ask Ipman for a compile
