Jim, thank you so much for all the compiles and for tcec version of Spaghet. Also if you could there is a new tcec version of Quanticade Cronus 3.0. I hope that the source code is here:
https://github.com/Quanticade/Quanticade

If you could by any chance compile, that would be great!
Thank you!

Hi,

Author has asked that development versions not be compiled for public use >
please do not compile development versions of Quanticade for public use.
So I will wait for proper release before compiling.

Jim.

short question:
Why do you think that the compiles from Phalanx XXIII are more interesting as from Phalanx XXV?

The last version by Dusan Dobes is Phalanx XXV

Hi Frank,

I didn't know there was a later version. I have ported over all the changes to latest XXV version.
XXV does seem a bit better/stronger.

Hi Jim,

x-mas gift around one month before ...
I want to hop in Gutweiler, Germany ... better not ... the neighbors you know.

It is really a sensation what you do for us, all that work.

Pure gold.
I think more important are the older engines, faster more modern compiles is the topic!
... in my personal opinium.

Phalanx will be your masterpiece, the idea with OliThink / Cerebrum is also very nice!!

Thank you again!!! (two more)

Jim,

shortly, maybe you give Phalanx XXV a new version number?!

Example:
- Phalanx XXV-I ... for the first one after your modifications (UCI, ponder, bugfixes)
- Phalanx XXV-II ... for the second one after your modifications (syzygy, move-overhead, bugfixes)

An important work, so I think a new version number is fully OK.
Loud thinking ...

Many people like Phalanx!
Example: Tord Romstadt, Roland Pfister, Rudolf Huber after I remember on his words in Leiden years ago, many others.
