New engine releases & news H1 2022

[Graham Banks]

Berserk 8.5.1

This is a bug-fix release for 8.5 which had issues with cyclical time controls (40 moves in 15 minutes). For non-cyclical TCs, this will represent no changes.

Download: https://github.com/jhonnold/berserk/releases/tag/8.5.1

I have a result behind version 8.0 for CEGT 40/20 using AVX2 pext compile after 1000 games.
Any ideas ?

Wow, Werner. That was quick!

... for version 8.5

Yes - I figured that. I was just being mischievous.
Happy New Year to you and your family.

If it's 40 moves in 20 minutes, then please re-test it with 8.5.1. Sorry for the issues.
