There are many important changes and corrections.
Sting is "one brain in one head" engine.
It works in the same way in: searching, playing and auto-playing.
Sting starts with 128M hash (I recommend 1024M).

Re: Sting SF 17
I tried installing this in Chessbase 14, and it appears that the name is incompatible with Chessbase - in other words, it does not install (or if it does, one cannot find it in the list of available engines). Perhaps it is the <> in the name.

Re: Sting SF 17
You're right.
No uci-file is created here either.
It is definitely due to the < > characters. What a mess.
Until version sting-sf-16 there was no such thing, and it worked fine.

Re: Sting SF 17
A wonderful news!
"The" Chessbase ignores Sting 17!
I recommend to start Sting directly in "Windows Command Line" I will prepare the guide and it is very easy to start Sting there.

Re: Sting SF 17
Earlier it was: Sting X based on Stockfish 2.1.1 by Y.
It seems to be wrong. Y is not an author of Stockfish 2.1.1 .
I chenged it to: Sting X <based on Stockfish 2.1.1> by Y.
It seems to be much better.
But here "all" of the top engines seems to be "stolen" and such question is far to be important for GUI authors.

Re: Sting SF 17
How about Sting X by Y, based on Stockfish 2.1.1? While working on the command line may be a valid (perhaps even preferred) method, Your engine, which has worked under the Chessbase interface for millenia should continue to do so. I hope you make it so.lech wrote: ↑Sat Sep 21, 2019 8:09 pmEarlier it was: Sting X based on Stockfish 2.1.1 by Y.

Sting 17 < based on Stockfish 2.1.1 > 64bit by Marek Kwiatkowski ... works NOT
Sting 16 based on Stockfish 2.1.1 64bit by Marek Kwiatkowski ........works
Remove the two <> and all is well.
If Sting does not load in Chessbase/Fritz GUI Sting is no longer important for me and other users.

Re: Sting SF 17
OK, I feel the pression, but from version 17, I am focused to use "auto-playing" much more than earlier.Paloma wrote: ↑Sun Sep 22, 2019 12:36 am Sting 17 < based on Stockfish 2.1.1 > 64bit by Marek Kwiatkowski ... works NOT

I doubt that Chessbase give a possibility to do it.
BTW. "<>" It is not my bug!
