Re: New engine: Caissa

FYI, I updated the release with a small bugfix (version 1.14.1 now) for a time manager bug that was found by Dio in CEGT testing.

Caissa 1.13 has been released! https://github.com/Witek902/Caissa/releases/tag/1.13 HI, I think, there's bug in FRC, Can you please check it? https://www.mediafire.com/file/c7yeox3h8686hdn/Caissa.pgn/file Not only in FRC. I played a very short match between 1.12 and 1.13 but interrupted it after 12...

Caissa 1.10 has been released:
https://github.com/Witek902/Caissa/releases/tag/1.10

I removed forward slash from the engine name, hopefully this fixes ChessGUI issue.

Re: New engine: Caissa

Perhaps it does not like the "/" or the brackets in the UCI engine name, that is all I can suggest. I was trying everything, nothing worked. So far I know it started to happen after I switched to using CMake to generate Visual Studio solution. Some project settings were different, but it ...

Re: New engine: Caissa

Could you compile an exe for me that uses 1024mb hash, 4 cores and uses the tablebase path E:\SyzygyTablebases by default? It's not needed. You just set this exact command line options string in engine settings: "setoption name Hash value 1024" "setoption name Threads value 4" &...

Re: New engine: Caissa

The error means that the engine failed to enabled large pages (the exe needs some privileges set up in Windows settings), but it shouldn't be a problem. I think this error is printed since early releases and wasn't causing any issues. The net shouldn't be a problem, because it loaded successfully an...

Re: New engine: Caissa

I reverted all UCI options to version 1.8 so that "uci" command output is exactly the same as in version 1.8 and I'm still getting the same behavior (hang on Edit Engine Parameters leading to engine kill). I'm out of ideas...

Re: New engine: Caissa

I don't know, for me it looks like ChessGUI bug. The options are properly reported: GetPrivateProfileString() no value for Host in Ftp (D:\CHESS\TOOLS\ChessGUI 0.245m\GUI_DATA\ChsGUI_Ini.INI), nResult = 0, OutStr = GetPrivateProfileString() no value for User in Ftp (D:\CHESS\TOOLS\ChessGUI 0.245m\GU...

Re: New engine: Caissa

Caissa 1.9 won't display option settings for me, so I can't test it using 4 cores. Previous versions didn't have this issue. What do you mean? "Threads" option is correctly reported to UCI for me. I was using multithreaded search with cutechess, Nibbler and lichess-bot without issues. Cai...

Re: New engine: Caissa

I released a minor version that fixes blunders in longer time controls: https://github.com/Witek902/Caissa/releases/tag/1.6.3 Could you please check whether or not any of the following games were affected? Yes, many games lost by Caissa in the PGN are due to a bug that should be fixed in 1.6.3
