Let me say first that I am an eMule and aMule fan. I use both, eMule on PAKman No1 and PAKMan No2, aMule on PAKman No3. I was a downloader/uploader for more than a year, but now only upload all available Nalimov EGTBs. eMule has worked for me flawlessly and the old adage ( If its not broke don't fix...

Thanks H. G. for a great answer.

Hi, H G
What use is the information?
Does a chess playing program use the files?

Thanks for the replay.
Norm

What are the (tbs) files used for in the below example?
KNNNKN – 0.78 GB in 2 files (tbs | md5)
I know how to use the KNNNKN and the (md5) files.
But what is the use of the (tbs)?

Norm

Congratulations !!! I also join the club last week. PAKman No1 on eMule, shares all except 5-1 on Server PEERATES.NET 88.191.81.111 : 1111 . PAKman No2 needs 275 files to have a complete set.

Hi Ty,

The generator was for 2-5 man tablebases and has been removed.
It was reported to be corrupt, and I did not have a replacement.
If anyone wants to upload a tablebase generator, please make a folder under opening books.

Thanks, Sorry I can't help at this time.

Hi Shaun,

Hi Norm, I have a suggestion for your overclocking section: It would be great for newbies if you could include details like type of cpu, motherboard, memory, cooling, power supply and all the overclocked bios settings. It would be even better if you could have details of several different setups. T...
