Vajolet 2.62 can not be downloaded. It is not a working exe.

Has anyone tested Minic recently ? I usually test it only in 0:20/40 TC, i'll be glad to know how it performs at longer TC.

Vajolet 2.6.2 is a Linux file. It is a bug fix to 2.6.1 and it runs great.

Winter 0.3 has been released.

I wanted to wait and make a binary as well for Android, but I have realized I have been using that as an excuse not to release it for the passed 10 days or so and since I told myself I wouldn't test any new ideas until after I released a new version... Well, I add Android binary to the release later as well as OSX release.

This release supports SMP and is around +120 Elo in self play. I will make a thread with much more detailed patch notes like last time soon.

Also, in this release the binaries are completely standalone, no weight files are used for search or eval. It is all hideously hardcoded into src/general/hardcoded_params.h which contains lots of arrays that are automatically generated source that I manually copy paste =)
