It would be nice for my data processing if you could make non-merged delta files available (like CEGT has). In order to incorporate the data, I have to do diff files with gigabytes and a lot of different tedious steps. You would not have to keep them forever, just the delta for each new release of d...

The DLL only comes in 32 bits.
So nobody is going to develop for that.

Not enough games for statistical significance. So I hope that more games are run.
Normally, the "tactical" versions of programs play quite a bit weaker.

I can send you working copy if you like.
His email address is available from the binary by pressing the help button.

A Berkeley style license would definitely help the popularity of the project. Very little is known about this generator so far. It would be nice if someone verified one 6 men by comparing with the Nalimov equivalent. I have a friend who is going to compare several of the statistics files to see if ...

These files were created on a computer that was also busy doing other things (his program is SMP and it seems to have something equivalent to the Unix nice command since it yields when I have other apps needing resources): What CPU and how many cores? -----------------------------------------------...

I am currently downloading the whole six man set. What type of advantage will I have when playing engine vs engine matches. Edit: will it slow me down in 1/0 games?? and will it be more useful in long games? The only advantage the 6 man set will give you in engine engine matches is that it will pla...

Here is some timing information for tablebase creation (if you notice that I am doing a strange pattern of creation, it is because I have a friend who wants the stats files for the bare king tablebase files). These files were created on a computer that was also busy doing other things (his program i...

I have exchanged email recently with Sergey Yankovich (author of this tablebase generator): http://generatorchess.com/ Apparently, he intends to apply a Berkeley style license to the tablebase generator. He also intends to release the probing code and possibly even the generator code. Perhaps a coor...

They are Valentin Abillo positions.
I have bad scores from my analysis, but a 7 man file would "answer the question with finality"

Unfortunately, since they have pawns, I doubt if anyone has computed the files.
