Completion of the 5-1 egtb's

I know I have asked this question about a year ago but have been anxiously waiting to see what work has been done in completing the 5-1 EGTB's. I think I have all but about 20 of the 5-1 egtb's and wondered if anyone knows or has completed it? Thanks in advance for any info you can provide. I am not...

Re: Nalimov EGTB Numbers Needed

Hi Redman,

Listen if you are able to generate the 6 piece EGTB for 5-1 pieces please let me know. I really only need the stat files for some work I am doing. Will you be generating the stat files aslo?

Re: special 7-men tablebase

I started generating 7-man tablebases for the endings rook + 2 pawns vs. 2 minor pieces some time ago, with the constraint of promotions only to queen to avoid having to generate tons of sub-games.

Re: Complete 6 men TB's on disk

As for the DTC EGTs, I imagine Marc B has DTC(onversion) statistics ... number of positions of DTC dep...

Re: Complete 6 men TB's on disk

Hi Guyhaw I have been waiting for someone to generate the 5-1 egtb's for a long time. I understand that from an engine point of view they are not very important but I have been doing a study on egtb's and need that final piece of data to complete it. Obviously I need the stat files only. Do you know...

Re: Zugzwangs in 5-1(p) Chess

Guyhaw,

Does this thread imply that the 6 piece egtb of 5-1 pawn and no pawns have been calculated. The reason I am asking is that I am looking for the tbs stat files for the entire set. Do you or know anyone who has it?

Thanks,

Les
