@Louis: what do you get with only one thread and 6-man tbs? Does it switch to Rh1?
I don't see Rh1 as a first choice during the search.

6-man Syzygy and all other settings at default:

TBs usage can result in different search cutoffs at different plies & depths, which can add some variability to the search. Often it is better, though sometimes it can delay awareness of tactical shots for a few iterations.
Thanks for explaining.

Didn't expect, that 5-man tbs has such big impact to search in a middlegame position.
Hope we're not just the biological boot loader for digital super intelligence. Unfortunately, that is increasingly probable - Elon Musk

Does Honey-X5i find Bxh7 with 6-man tbs and one thread?

Thanks Mike, looking forward for your Honey-X5i release. :D
No - Honey did not found Bxh7 with one thread in less than 3 minutes with 6 man tb ( or 7 man). Neither did Crystal-Honey - but if you switch to 6 core and 1024M hash, Crystal-Honey finds Bxh7 in 4.42 secs with a positive score. Honey did not find it in 3 minutes with 6 core as well. It is getting hung up with the Rh1 move and all the related failed highs that move is causing.

I got lost on Github trying to find it, it's possible you end downloading some Stockfishdev source instead of Crystal :shock:

So I recommend this link by Dann Corbit:

EDIT NOTE - This is an outdated link for a modified Crystal 1.0, better to use karger's link below
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1xEqAs ... MqEaN2D_0y

It has Crystal's source code and a couple compiles.

EDIT - Oh right, Dann had something to say about this version...
Unfortunately, I make some changes for my own purposes. You can figure them out with diff.
If you want to use this version, you will probably want to turn off writing the analysis to disk UCI logging option.

There is a 64 bit binary for ancient CPUs and one for SSE CPUs, but I do not have a BMI build in it.

Windows compiles are at the link below , scroll down the page and click on assets & you will find 2 windows compiles to download. It is on gitgub which is safe. https://github.com/jhellis3/Stockfish/releases/tag/v1.1

I did that too. This will get you the right source code using git:

git clone --single-branch --branch crystal https://github.com/jhellis3/Stockfish.git

He is saying about downloading UCI from Github. U end up downloading SC instead of the UCI engine.
