Generating 6-Piece Syzygy Tablebases?

Post by Steve Maughan »

On my old laptop I generated the 6-piece syzygy tablesbases. As I remember I downloaded a zip file containing the necessary exe and ran a batch file. I now have a new laptop but can't find the files to download. Can someone send me a link to generating all 6 pieces tablesbases? If possible I don't want to compile anything.

Thanks,

Steve

If all else fails: https://github.com/syzygy1/tb

But you'd need to compile something first. :D

Thanks but I don't have perl on my machine. Last time I didn't have perl and managed to generate them all.

Best regards,

Here is a tb-master archive:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1JVuG7 ... KajIepHnaj
In the src folder you will find all the 64 bit binaries.
There is also a batch file called generate.bat that will create all the tablebase files up to 6 men.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.
