Re: 3-4-5
Looks like you mirrored it when I was getting the 6men too, hense the tablebase.sesse.net/ folder :) Mirrors are always useful. Dr. Hyatts site has been quick and reliable for longer than I've been into chess, but always nice to keep the data spread out. BTW for the 3+3 files you have, I'd md5sum ch...

Re: Steinar H. Gunderson
The site seems very reliable, I just finished the entire 3+3 and 4+2 sets ~(200gigs) and not a single file was corrupt.Elmika wrote:Is this download site reliable? How can I make sure I have the correct files? If the md5 sum is correct how sure can I be then?
The md5sum's checked perfectly.

Re: Gaviota EGTB
I'm a little behind, just noticed the post on talkchess about that engine. Having it generate 4-5 men on my server now.
Looks nifty, what little I've seen of the engine I really like it. Willing to host the dataset if the author gives permission.

I was looking over the main emule page. If you want you can add a hard link to my site for the scorpio bitbases.
For others in the forum it's here:
http://olympuschess.com/bitbases/
It's been there since June '07 lol, guess I forgot to make the link available. Sorry.

Yearly Where are the 7-men Thread
It's now 2008 and even I can afford a 1-2tb every couple months. So disk space doesnt seem to be the issue anymore. So where are the 7-men tables and has anyone have any updates? Every 6months or so this topic comes up and we all seem to dredge up posts from 2004-2005'ish about someone doing somethi...

Re: EGTB sharing - new plan
That's pretty cheap for hosting :) the hosting I use for olympuschess.com is ixwebhosting. Think I pay about $125 a year so ~$12 a month, but I have a 500gig max transfer rate. While they do claim "unlimited storage" I've asked for verification and since it is a vhosting service, they get ...

Sorry for the late reply. I try to host as much as I can on my site, there's also the Pakman server (hope I spelled that right). Other than that emule is the best place to get them. Good luck. As for the amount, I can host about 60gigs of data. So I'm a little limited, plus I host 3 other sites and ...

I also have a P4 3ghz w/ HT available, a AMD64 dual core 3ghz machine available, and a 2ghz machine as well that I could let burn for 5-1.

You probably know that Nalimov code is not free and it's close to impossible to contact him these days. I have to agree with Kirll. I have very very much respect for Nalimov. But he seems to be out of ...

I'm uploading the 3-4-5 dataset to my site right now and it's paid for at least another 4 years (let alone Dr. Hyatt's main source). I just truly would like another ...
