Roc 2.0.0

Post by Pvt. Ryan »

I tried the new Roc 2.0.0 using cutechess and got an error message 'could not initialize Roc 2.0.0'. Anyone knows a workaround on this? Thanks.

I couldn't run it either (under ChessGUI).

Back in the day Gull 3 was the only engine that failed under cutechess, not much, but the only one. That its successor keeps failing is hardly surprising, and that it fails more is only relatively so.

You're absolutely right. I still got some issues with Gull 3 under cutechess.
