Thank you very much for the test. Did you figure out what the issue was with cpu scorpio version ?
It maybe that i continually update the versions and there was a mixup in your download.
I have added an install.sh script that will download and configure scorpio and test it for you. https://github.com/dshawul/Scorpio/rele ... install.sh
It works as is for linux but for windows you need something to run bash scripts with, cygwin or alike.
In the script first lines you can choose OS and whether to install CPU/GPU versions.

The one caveat with msys2 is that there is no true fork(). On the other hand, the fork for cygwin is not like the linux fork, but it does work.
Msys2 is the neatest thing since sliced bread.
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.

I do Not believe that MTCS + NN perform better than AB + NN. Allie+Stein MTCS+NN performed worse than AB+NN.
Do NOT worry and be happy, we all live a short life
Daniel, I did figure out the immediate cause of Scorpio failing to load NNs and crashing under Cute Chess GUI and brought it to your attention in the issues I opened on your Github site. The datestamps of the exec, NN and DLL are also provided there, along with the CC debug logs, PGNs and WER reports.
Your questions here and the suggestion of a mixup shows that you didn't bother to look at any of it, and your continual ignoring of my posts in those issues creates the impression that you are not interested in receiving bug reports and working together on solving the problems. Things were quite different a year ago when I was helping you test your first MCTS version.
Ofcourse I am interested in reports of issues of installation. Sorry you felt that way, but i tried my best to address the issues you raised.
I just wasn't able to reproduce the problem, but we both suspected that my frequent updating could have been a problem.

I think you are a bit unfair to me. I do appreciate anyone who do tests and report issues -- you might have noticed you are the first one to report issues to me on github so i have no reason to ignore you. Anyway lets leave that behind us. The install.sh script, as I have mentioned, downloads and configures scorpio for you and there will not be inconsistencies between scorpio/egbbdlll/networks.
