Which engines besides Shashchess are according to their authors stronger than Stockfish? I mean engines without using experience.

Nebula vortex is one of sf darivatives without experience file. It released just after stockfish 15.1 and it was stronger than stockfish 15.1.

Hi
There is too little information about it. I would like also something that is still developed.

kookaburra was also stronger than sf in longer time controls. once you said that , you are not the author of kookaburra and you just compile it. It was also very good and strong engine.

Yes, but later after some tuning done to Stockfish it was stronger. Unrealeased betas of Kookaburra v1.04 were not released because they were equal at best.
