Hi Joost, Hello Sidiki! Windows 10 has some settings options dedicated to developers that purposely limit the use of hardware. Exploring these settings, I understand that it is possible to make the computers similar and consequently the tournament less unequal. Big hug my brother! Thanks again for ...

Hi Ed, I am writing to you with a request. You wouldn't do Kingsrow NNUE.I think the program would be great as well as the rest of NN's programs. Krzysztof Maybe there's something new coming to Kingsrow, as Ed usually releases his updates in mid-May, at least it's been that way for the last three y...

Hi all Sorry for be late, a friend Luzimar, fixed this endgame bug of flits, and it's more stable and more strong. Sorry again to remember at the end of the tournament. This's the link that I done for this fixed with endgame database. You can test the difference with some endgame positions. https:/...

Now what do I do with all of this? You probably don't need to do anything to games already played because none of the outcomes changed after 85 moves. Stop all future games at 85 moves maximum. This is an important issue, some games can take more than 90 moves to end in victory. There is a specific...

Hallo Krzysztof, My suggestion is to add a paragraph on tie-break criteria, when players have the same score points. I wish you success and a great tournament. Best regards, Kees Pippel Olá, no sistema round-robin já há critérios para definir o melhor colocado em caso de mesma pontuação. São basica...

I have this question. Why it is not possible to generate databases in the Dragon program. I have used different versions of Dragon. My hardware is processor - AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 3.4GHz hard drive - Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD 2 TB memory ram - Kingston HyperX Fury 128 GB DDR4 2400MH...

Coincidence or not the hard drives were corrupted to an unrecoverable degree, many clusters were invalid where repair via chkdsk /r took months according to the system. I managed to generate the bases of 7 complete pieces, I had some problems at first, but after correctly configuring the pagefile, ...

Pontel sorry to ask. And what was the reason for the resignation (of course, as you can write) of further generating databases of endings Dragon. Hello Mr Grzelak My giving up on creating the Dragon finals database came after losing two hard drives. Another problem was that Dragon with incomplete b...

Hi Luzima Araujo. Do you still generate the base ends to Dragon. Hi Grzelak! Luzimar seems to have lost his password to login here on the forum. Even so, he and I gave up generating the bases some time ago. Hug! Pontel sorry to ask. And what was the reason for the resignation (of course, as you can...

I tried again to generate a 6-figure endgame base for Cerberus. I tried Windows 7 x64 bit and Windows 10 x64 bit. Unfortunately, there are bugs and so I wonder if it still makes sense. It is a pity that Mr. Leo Nagels cannot share them with me. I have also tried many times... I don't think even the...
