Syzygybases suitable for win32-systems?

Post by Norbert Raimund Leisner »

Hello together,

are http://olympuschess.com/egtb/sbases/ or https://github.com/syzygy1/tb
suitable for Windows-32-systems, too?

Or are these EGTBs tested only on Linux-systems and Windows x64?

Best wishes,
Norbert

I tested Stockfish_Syzygy ( http://abrok.eu/stockfish_syzygy/ ) on Win 32 and it works well.

I would believe so. On top of the stockfish port, Houdini also supports this egtb. I've noticed a nice influx of new people downloading the dataset since the Houdini release.

Up to 74 TB shared now from within the community.

They are, but only the 5-piece tables. The 6-piece tables get too big for a 32-bit address space.

I can confirm they work very well under both Linux and Windows XP (32 and 64 bit versions).

I'm testing them with Ronald's Stockfish.
