Cool Iris 10.40

[minutka15]

Next update will be Cool Iris 12.0 just I need a few days.

Hi Anton, first thank you for your nice job!
I would like to say about my wishes, if you could make an engine with an external NNUE it would be ideal.
Of cource it's your desigion.
Best regards!

Hi Minutka!

Ok, I can leave the two options with embedded and external net.

Hi Anton
If you set a poll at this forum be certain that most members want to see Raptora engine on stage in future too. I know that you are very busy, you have three engines for public, Cool iris , Tactical and Killfish. Also you have your private engines to update, and like all of us you have your personal works. But I want to suggest that if it’s possible don’t stop Raptora project completely. All chess fans know this engine , as the engines of tournaments. Very stable, very strong , with very good results records at tournaments and engine vs engine matches. If it’s possible continue it as a side project. And sometimes (not regular as your other engines)release a special edition of Raptora for chess fans. And keep this nostalgia alive.
Best regards

Hi!

Sure, with pleasure, any RapTora special edition sounds good to me. By the way, new Cool Iris 12.0 is on the way, I already have it in testing, updated to SF dev 070424, but with the corchess changes, I will read you in a few hours. It took me an hour, it was a little simpler than I thought.

Best regards;

Thanks Anton, Thanks Sedat. Very good news.

Dear Sedat, reading thoughts is an essential part of chess game, isn’t it?
Best regards

Hey Anton I agree about the Raptora engin, it is too good to cancel!! So if possible please keep updating? Thanks for your other engines too.

Hi Anthony,

I am testing your engines and would like to share the files with you privately. Can you write your e-mail address?

Thanks.

Tonight (Mexico time), I will release two Cool Iris with different net dimensions, support CTG/polyglot and generate experience file.

In the tests both Cool Iris are playing very well!

I'll give download options: with external network and embedded network.

I'll read you later.

Best regards;
