Two new programs if...

[Guenther]

...they would work

Both posted in the Chess2U forum, which I only discovered during
the work for the reconstruction of the XB/UCi chronology.
I could ask questions there, but I don't want to register, because
they are too much into clones/illegal derivates for my taste.

At least the user 'linuxchess' sometimes finds something worth to be checked though.
(although also > 50% of the discovered sources turn out to be just recycled or copied
other free sources without mentioning the origin...independent from the strength BTW)

He compiled two new programs with clear origin, but both
don't work here. The first one crashes with a cygwin stackdump error,
when starting a game.
The second one crashes immediately after start.

1. Maxima2:
(successor of wellknown ICC program QueenMaxima!)

source:
https://github.com/hof/qm2

original post + download of compiled version

2. Hayabusa:
(successor of known Slibo)

source:
https://github.com/gpiez/hayabusa

original post + download of compiled version
http://www.chess2u.com/t10557-hayabusa

May be someone is interested to give them a try for new compilations...

FWIF maxima2 (the one from github) runs fine here (Debian Linux system, 64 bit).
That is: "uci" and then "go depth 9".

That's nice :) but a working WIN version would be good/necessary too.
I guess most still run WIN or are forced to do so because of other programs,
which are WIN only.

(please no OS battle here - I also worked under Linux bash looong ago - never had it really installed at home though)

Some changes have to be made for it to compile and run in Windows.

Binaries are in the \bin folder in the archive

[Norbert Raimund Leisner]

libwinpthread1.dll is missing - and after putting this downloaded .dll into the folder "bin" - a Windows user error appears:

application could not be correctly executed (0x0c000007b). click on OK to terminate the program

Same here

Here is a new version that is statically linked:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4jzbi8te42319 ... er.7z?dl=0

In the src folder there is a second 64 bit version that does not require a hardware popcnt instruction named maxima2-nopop.exe

This version is statically linked so it should not ask for DLL files.

Thanks Dann! This one works here now.

It seems to have an excellent branching factor of about 2
