The architecture of a chess engine is a choice of its programmer(s). If chess engines can (or can't) use:
-endgame databases (Syzygy, Gaviota, Nalimov, various bitbases...);
-evaluation based on 1-n data accumulators (NNUEs, NNs, DCNNs) or HCE;
-experience files;
-internal or external books;
-etc, etc, etc......
does not imply unfairness in matches/tournaments. Each chess engine programmer achieves what he wants, given the skills he
has.

The Darkshit thingy is completely illegal, because it is 'released' with a fake source which in reality is the source of
an old unchanged Glaurung version of 08/2009. (I downloaded and checked it...ofc the MZ exp. file is not there too)
This means this thread should be moved. (moderation informed)

The result only reflects the usage of the 'experience file' which is nothing else than a kind of book file,
no matter what your 'funny' disclaimer wants to tell us.
DS is out of 'book' (exp file) in move 11, saved time 62s already vs. SF.

An additional information:

the "thing" above (I have no idea what and where you downloaded what you claim) does not use MZ exp. but something else !

Oh boy, check your own screenshot, but I can post another startup screenshot too...
it says it uses the MZ exp.cpp source code for using experience binary files.
(I really don't care if it was learnt by MZ or by someone else, or is simply an obfuscated one taken from MZ.)

I did not post any links, because I sent them to the moderation ofc.

And of course results from illegal engines should be in the EO forum, or forbidden anyway

It says it uses the MZ exp.cpp source code .....anyone can read this, of course. Nothing new. Who trained the experience file (a true masterpiece) is a completely different story, boy!

If the engine is legal or illegal, I care less. I'm only interested in the result. I don't post links and in general I don't have the expertise to say whether it is yes or not.
Of course, the moderators can delete the initial post (your "analyses" will also go...). I won't waste my time with a new answer!
