I have released Xiphos 0.2:
https://github.com/milostatarevic/xiphos/releases
Some features:
- improved evaluation
- singular extensions
- slightly faster search
- fixed time control issues
- no-popcnt build
- various other fixes
The new version is about 45 elo stronger than 0.1 in self play (tc=40/90s). When an incremental time control is used an additional gain of 20-30 elo is expected (due to the time allocation bug in version 0.1).
I would like to thank all the testers, and everyone who helped me to debug some of the issues.
