these seem to be the right ones.

Good luck, and enjoy. Hope it will work for you too

Bad news..... It continue crashing for me. I will send now to you a version of my engine and will gratefull if you could see if the problem continues for you. Tell me what about....

i 'll give my best.

1:
=====

But before, did you clean up your egbb folder before unzipping the
new ones !? (only to be sure, not mixing sth together)

2:
=====

my folder now includes 3 dlls (spinlockedVersions)

- egbbdll.dll (32bit version)
- egbbdll32.dll (32bit version renamed)
- egbbdll64.dll (64bit version renamed)

Ok, tested Rodin2.3 under Arena:
======================

in simple words: It works fine !

put the following to the cfg-file:

1: EGBB_path = c:\egbb (backslash)
2: EGBB_path = c:/egbb (slash)
3: EGBB_path =

for "3:" the engine must be unloaded and reloaded to compute its own moves.

Rodin2.3 under Chessbase DeepFritz11 Gui:
=============================

UciEngine can be created but cannot be loaded in any form !?!

So i am sure you now have the correct bitbases.
Therefore i suggest to (if you have not already done) cleanup
the folder you had and put the files in.
Further make sure you have 3 dlls at the end put to the folder

32bit version (not renamed)
32bit version (renamed)
64bit version (renamed)

my testcode was switching the dlls like that...

Code: Select all

	#ifdef _WIN64
		#define EGBB_NAME "egbbdll64.dll"
	#else //_WIN32
		#define EGBB_NAME "egbbdll32.dll"
		//#define EGBB_NAME "egbbdll.dll"
	#endif

Then i am pretty sure it will work on your system too.

Michael,

You must be doing something bad. For me, my implementation returns 0 for both.

yes, i did!

changed the cachesize today, and set it to 32Byte (instead of 32MB).

fixed now. Thx
