Engines - Nalimov

Post by Krzysztof Grzelak »

I have a question. Please write which chess engines currently support the Nalimova Tablebases 6 man ending database.

I would imagine that any engine that supports Nalimov tablebases would.

I'm sorry that I don't have such a list of engines though.

Crafty supported Nalimov tablebases, going back a long way. But the tb probing code is from 2001 so I don't know if it handled 6-man Nalimov tbs.

Hiarcs 15, Fritz 15+16, Chiron 5 as for the most recent ones, Crafty would be the only free one that comes to my mind being still to be gotten regards

Thanks for all answers. There used to be engines like the Tornado and Houdini that also supported Nalimov. I have Fritz 18 - I do not have it Hiarcs 15, Fritz 15+16, and Chiron 5.01.
