For anyone who has cloned Ethereal after the 8.60 release...
I made a silly mistake of not initializing the main mutex used for managing threads in the search. I've corrected the mistake and updated the release page
I'm not sure how serious this mistake was. Could just be making the valgrind output clean, it could mean not completing stalling the engine, or may just be worth a few elo for doing things "as intended".
I have removed the Win64 executable that was attached to the release. I will upload a new one once I get back to my windows machine which I used to compile the initial one.
Additionally, if one of the members here who sent me a MAC compile could send me a new one, I would be grateful and would add it back to the release.
Apologies, Andrew

The .exe file is very well hidden! For the moment I'm looking for it ....

I do not make popcount or bmi2 executables.
Where you able to run the original Ethereal8.60?
Do you get complains about missing libraries?
AMD or Intel. If Intel, what generation.
If you can answer these for me, I'll see if I can make a working one when I get home.
If you have GCC, you can just compile it yourself. I've never encounter a machine where I can't just type "make" to get Ethereal to compile. I'm not doing anything fancy with GCC like the stockfish folks are doing.

Re: Ethereal 8.61 -- Small bugfix to 8.60
I have added a new file to the release. If Ethereal8.60 worked for you, this one should too.
https://github.com/AndyGrant/Ethereal/r ... /tag/V8.61
It is named Ethereal8.61Guenther.exe
If you confirm this works for you, I will replace the Ethereal8.61.exe binary
Thanks,
Andrew Grant

Thanks Andrew! This one works here (8.60 and all before also worked here).AndrewGrant wrote:I have added a new file to the release. If Ethereal8.60 worked for you, this one should too.

8.61 simply immediately crashed (also at cmd before feeding any command).
Did you change the compiler (compiler flags?) or what was the difference?
