Cool Iris 10.40

[Sedat Canbaz]

I'm not sure I have Incognito Pro 5, anyway I'll be happy to hand you over to RapTora 2.3, just give me a few hours. In fact, I'll leave it here for public download, I'm sure some forum users will be interested in getting an update.

Best regards;

Great... I wonder a lot about latest Raptora..you know,
It is one of my favorite Top chess engines...

Hello Friends )

I have good news, (in case of running Gauntlet via concurrent: 64)
I ran quick testings and the stable learning engines via 64 concurrent games are:
Exc. Incognito 5 Pro, Brainlearn v26.5 + v27.0, Dark SisTer 8.50, Eman 9.90, Raid 3.40 are
Played as without any single Cutechess GUI crash...

On the other hand,
Sure, today I tested some other, older eng vers. too e.g some TACTICAL eng series
But they are not stable at all..crashed in every trying..actually this is known...
I mean I noticed these crashes a long time ago..but I wanted to be 100% sure again

Interesting to note also that,
SpecTral 5.5 did not crash ...but if I am not wrong,
Some older SpecTral vers are crashed in older Gauntlet tours..

And once more, and to be more clear
Why I pay attention? I wish simply all Top engines to be stable..
If many learning Top engines are stable...why not rest?)
As you may know too,
I run Eng and Book tours in Gauntlet mode so just in case of
Bugs with 64 concurrent.. it is really annoying..really..
And after these Cutechess GUI crashes, I am restartşing my PC
Otherwise..I do not want to leave any risk...in this way...just with
Fresh Windows the planing tours are resuming or starting )

Meanwhile, nowadays I think that
64 concurrent is not so high..I can run even 256 concurrent games!
Sure for this, I have to enable Hyper Threading (SMT) from Bios, but
As you may know, I run with SMT disabled (for better eng performance)
So I used to play mainly at 50% CPU usage (for better hardware performance)

Ok.. see you later... )

I have another good news for today, after many attempts, trying etc.
I managed to solve the 64 concurrent stability with Tactical 281023 and Sun Light 3
The problem is disappeared after disabling SYZYGY 4-MEN.. very very strange issue)
I still did not check Cool Iris .. but I assume via SYZYGY OFF.. will be all right...)

Who knows?..maybe it's time to write my own engine)
You see... I am not so bad in Eng programming too ))

This time I am serious,
Really I had BIG head ache with these kind of BUGS...
So, I wonder as well, sure as question:
Is there something wrong in SYZYGY code or in Eng code of mentioned engines ?
Any opinions over these issues are welcome... thanks

Anyhow, as final note,
I think that better Stability than using Syzygy...
If nothing else, my tours will be played at non-crash...

Best,
Sedat

That's great Sedat, in four hours I will leave the link to RapTora 2.3 in this same thread, a tour is about to end and I want to deliver the latest but best version of this chess engine. Because I didn't touch the source code more than 8 months ago, I only updated the "tactical" code and added some patches (I have three candidates and they are playing against stockfish 16.1 (I will put the best version up for download). I'll read you in a few hours.

Last update for Raptora chess engine.

LAST VERSION: RapTora 2.3

Because I left the RapTora 2.2 code 8 months ago, I only updated a few patches, however, it will still be a good fighting engine, have fun.

You can clean up the experience file with the defragmentation tools of Eman or SugaR.

Hi Anton Ces can you make a latest updation with stockfish dev or atleast to version 16.1 to Cool Iris engine to use dual nnue.
I tried to update cool iris 11.90 to latest but some files dont match to stockfish and I couldnot update. Because I am only a copy paste updater.
Why there is no update for a long time?
