Pedone 1.0

[Fabio Gobbato]

I have just released a new version of my engine.

Now it supports multithreaded search and it's a little bit stronger than Pedone 0.5 due to evaluation improvements and optimizations.

That's really good news, Fabio, thank you.

Hi,

Pedone 1.0 replaces Pedone 0.5 in my League Capablanca, currently running.

Many thanks !

Hello !

Why not a 32-bit compile (like was until 0.4 version) ? Would be nice ! Even Stockfish-Komodo-Houdini and all top engines have a such version.
And 25% of PCs existing in our world still have Windows XP ! Most on 32-bit !
Not to tell you that Mr.Ruxy hardly works in testing 32-bit compiles ! Take a look, please, to this thread:

Well, what can I say: THANK YOU (if yes- for your kindness , if not - for your nice x64 chess engine) !

Cheers,

Because Pedone works much better with 64bit and it needs some work to be compiled in 32bit.
I will work on it to release also the 32bit version.

THANK YOU a lot, Maestro Gobbato ! I'll test Pedone 32-bit intensively ! In fact 32-bit has its own world !
Plus your engine is an original one ! Again, a rara avis in our days !

Have a nice day !

That's really good news, Fabio, thank you.

Hmm, does not run on my Q6600. Is it an SSE4.2 compile?

Please, don't call me Maestro, I'm just a programmer.

Please, don't call me Maestro, I'm just a programmer.

OK !

In fact I think you are Maestro in programming !
