Hello bastiball,

I'm sorry but I'm not home right now. :( I will compile popcnt-avx2 as soon as I can. Meanwhile, I assume you could use popcnt version or just normal version.

I didn't announce this version, because it doesn't bring any major improvement at all, but thanks anyways Sylwy. :D Currently working on a new release that seems promising...

Clover 2.2

Post by lucametehau »

Took me some days, but I managed to get something working and now Clover 2.2 is here. Mostly, I just added a safecheck evaluation term and retuned all of them on lichess-quiet positions. Next, I will try tuning on more positions, but my laptop can't really handle it :? .
