Re: New release: rofChade 2.3
I agree. I always link statically on Windows. A lot of my users are not technical and don't know what a .dll is or how to download the MSVC redistributable. So I try to make things bulletproof for them.I don't like that dynamically linked stuff at all, it's a remnant of the past, at that time storage and memory were so small that it sounded like a good idea.

Question for Ronald. I'm watching Rofchade 2.217 play at TCEC in the Cup. How close is that version to the newly released 2.3?

Re: New release: rofChade 2.3
I believe they are very close in rating since it was release within a few days. but what makes the huge difference is that super hardware used in TCEC, compare to the one used here CCRLGary Internet wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 8:21 am Question for Ronald.

Re: New release: rofChade 2.3
Very close. There is only one difference between the two versions. The TCEC version contains an Opposite Colored Bishop correction, which seemed to work against Xiphos, but I was not sure in general, so I removed it from 2.3. I've been trying OCB before but I still can't seem to get it to work positively for rofChade. I think will try a more general imbalance approach in the future. It looks like rofChade it benefitting a little more from the TCEC hardware than Xiphos, single threaded Xiphos is stll stronger in my tests.Gary Internet wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 8:21 am Question for Ronald.
