Any idea of its strength?
I have a test running at ultra fast tc and it seems it is 60-100 rating points above Senpai 1.0.

Sorry, didn't have time to respond. I'm not sure what files are necessary to run the engine, in the future i will figure out how to pack all the stuff together. About that allocation warning, don't worry about it, its there to help me reduce heap allocations. Doesn't affect engine's performance. If...

None of us have Macs.

It's a pity that Arena did not include the assumed illegal move in the pgn. At least the biggest part of the illegal moves seem to come from not being able to promote to a second Queen!

Hi, I'm back after around 1.5 months of coding! Since v0.2.2, I felt the code is too messy and impractical, so I erased most files and started a rewrite from scratch. It is now released as v1.0.0!

I am testing version 2.1.1 in the hope that whatever change you make will have a new version number. It does not seem to be the case though, based on what Günther writes. I don't know why you came to this conclusion from my post? I have to add that your claim of 2000-2100 Elo range is quite mislead...

Then you miss some basic package(s) for msys2 - I will come back to this by PM in talkchess.
It will be much easier with git in the future of course!
