Owhh I see.. thanks a lot buddy.. I will search it and download it..

Hi bro Lisandr
I've downloaded it the SF12 Polyglot but then it cannot be install in Chess for Android GUI.. it only works in Droidfish..
Do u know anything about this ?

Thx..

Brother, I only use droidfish, it is the best for android, though you can't do a tournament of engines there. I only use a droidfish. Others don't know.

Okay bro.. it's okay... Thanks for the confirm

Serge launched a new network on fishtest. It's going very well so far

Use tiling to speed up accumulator refreshes and updates

Perform the update and refresh operations tile by tile in a local
array of vectors. By selecting the array size carefully, we
achieve that the compiler keeps the whole array in vector registers.

Idea and original implementation by @sf-x.

Elo +10.41 and Elo +2.21

It got a great improvement.

Ronald has ported acceleration patches from CFish to Stockfish.

On my PC, Stockfish AVX2 is almost 10% faster.
There is also a gain for other architectures.

Im using now even without book,,,only with neural net, and doing very good work.
Before I was using cfish and bin book and neural net...but now they implemented cfish feature and gained that much elo, back to original.

Add large page support for NNUE weights and simplify TT mem management

Use TT memory functions to allocate memory for the NNUE weights. This
should provide a small speed-up on systems where large pages are not
automatically used, including Windows and some Linux distributions.

Further, since we now have a wrapper for std::aligned_alloc(), we can
simplify the TT memory management a bit:

- We no longer need to store separate pointers to the hash table and
its underlying memory allocation.
- We also get to merge the Linux-specific and default implementations
of aligned_ttmem_alloc().

Finally, we'll enable the VirtualAlloc code path with large page
support also for Win32.

but it will be slower. because the engine has to calculate the position.

yes....i dont play 1 minute game with it, only if I use book

And I play giving engine specific time to think like 10s for each move to it not spend too much time without book.

10s per move, it means that the engine will move weakly. not a strong move.

for me, you should to use 1 book, not 2 books and change of engine. engine that says BOOKFILE

I realized that use 2 books are worst than 1 book.

these stockfish were made to work in fritz or arena interface. not to be used with bots.

Anybody noticed that nnue or something makes engine stop and think for few seconds during a mate move? my engine when finds the mate, during the moves it stops 3 or 4 seconds to move again till mate. sometimes horrible 7 or 8 seconds in delay.

Hi, all. Here is my first not-too-bad Stockfish data based net. It performs -100Elo versus SV nets inside MinicNNUE (but still kills Minic standard eval by +120Elo) and its name is "Napping Nexus".

Switch to NNUE eval probabilistically for OCB

Introduce a small chance of switching to NNUE if PSQ imbalance is large but we have opposite colored bishops and the classical eval is struggling to win.

Update default net to nn-04cf2b4ed1da.nnue

Further tune the net parameters, now the last but one layer (32x32).
To limit the number of parameters optimized, the network layer was
decomposed using SVD, and the singular values were treated
as parameters and tuned.
