Mark, I keep trying to buy Komodo 9 but it keeps telling me that my order amount is 0 (tells me my cart has K9 but nothing actually there). When I had first applied the Komodo 8 discount, PayPal showed the order amount as 0. Anyways, my email is drummerboy20@live.ca. there is some sort of glitch here...

It appears that the Syzygy win/lose score now 250.00 (?)

from the readme:

A score of +317.99 indicates a tablebase win, while a score of -317.99 indicates a loss. A score of +0.02, 0 or -0.02 indicates a draw (+/- 0.02 is a draw which would be a win/loss if the 50-move rule were not in effect). In a tablebase position, Komodo will immediately return this score with a depth of 9.

The TB win/loss scores remain +-#1000 for root TB positions (8/k7/8/4Kn2/8/P7/8/1n6 b - - 0 1 with 5-man bases and 50-move rule disabled, for instance). For positions which involve TB WL hits during search (more pieces than N-man bases), +-250.00 is returned. Looks like the README is incorrect and needs some updating.

Is it possible K9 needs a "never clear hash" option with certain GUIs for persistent hash to function without being automatically cleared when an analysis starts? With Arena 3.5 in preliminary tests, I can't really see a difference in reaching a depth quicker from loading the hash vs starting a search from scratch after a reboot. The hash file does indeed get saved though.

Also, I'm unable to load persistent hash unless I first start an analysis and wait until 20 ply or so, stop the analysis, then load hash. This is from the starting position for testing.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but never has an issue with H4 loading the hash (which did have the "never clear hash button")
