New engine releases & news H2 2024

[tcusr]

Hello everyone, not a release but i want to announce that the repository of my chess engine has now moved to https://github.com/mateoxh/neuromancer.
References to the old page should still work but to avoid future problems it's the better to use the new link, sorry for the inconvenience.

Yakka v1.1

Greetings to all.

Multiple bug fixes and modest strength improvement over v1.0

I estimate +75 ELO gain (+/-30) based on 15 engine gauntlet at 720+8 tc. However, proof of the pudding is in the eating.

Have a great day.

Hello everyone, finally neuromancer 1.5 is out!
It is a lot faster than the previous version and has a few important bug fixes, i estimate an increase of around 100 ELO. I have compiled a binary for windows with all optimaztions turned on, if it doesn't work for you let me know and i will also compile binaries for older CPUs.

you can find it at https://github.com/mateoxh/neuromancer/ ... s/tag/v1.5

It does not work for me although I have a quite new CPU. It says an entry point cannot be found in the DLL (?).

Using the makefile it's OK.

I won't pollute this thread with further messages, I'm going to use issues at its page.

Hi guys! I'd like to announce here the release of my chess engine. It's called Donut.

First of all I NEED to thank Maksim Korzh for his YouTube video series, he did help me a lot and I learned a lot of things from his videos. My chess engine has a backbone of BBC (Maksim Korzh's engine) with some modifications (I've changed the NNUE to a newer version, including new probing functions for example).

My objective would be to 'register' my engine to participate in a CCRL tournament or similar in order to give it an estimated ELO, because I currently have no idea how strong it could be evaluated. Hopefully it will be possible!

If you guys have some advice, I'd be glad to read them. Thank you!

Is it able to be used without the SF net?

Unfortunately that's not possible, it's a problem, isn't it?

I can't speak for others, but I prefer it when engine authors train their own net rather than borrow one from elsewhere.
