Big-SF 200324

[Solista]

After getting a lot of letters from all over the world and some other people also being dissatisfied with Stockfish dev, I decided to release another engine. The meaning is: The influence of the small network was reduced and the large network was implemented with dimension 3072 (instead of dimension 2560). I use this engine for Blitz and Bullet as well as for quick analysis. I prefer to use the large network on Lichess because it allows me to win more games against weaker engines because it values fewer positions 0.00.

Implemented features "Minimum Thinking Time" and "Slow Mover". By the way, new D 3072 nets are currently being tested every day: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/nns. You can use these networks with the engine by copying the network into the folder and replacing the large network in the engine options. Have fun!

Not evaluating a position 0.00 doesn't mean that the engine makes a better move. On the opposite: I got better move choices with Cfish, where the evaluations were near 0.00, instead of other engines where the evaluation was floating and so the move choices. A key factor on move choices is the coherence, that means choosing always the same move when the same position is proposed more and more times.

22. Mar 2024: Big-SF 210324. Latest SF updates and new improved search for the large network. As I already wrote, the SF developers are testing new D 3072 networks. Here is a test version with the network "nn-56e7225a7727.nnue". The network is now embedded because some users are having problems with external networks (even though it's easy). Features: Slow Mover, Minimum Thinking Time. Download Win 64-Bit (avx2, bmi2, sse41, source code): https://pixeldrain.com/u/vqWuhCtX

Dear Eduarth,

Congratulations on being the first to report a cheater.I agree with your actions and have proven your suspicions to be correct. I do not tolerate cheating and have no respect for those who do. I only lost one match due to my internet being disconnected when I was in a winning position of +4.0. Despite being humiliated, he still challenged me to a duel. He seems to enjoy losing. Eduarth, I enjoy following your work on engines and books. I sent you an email, but I heard you were in seclusion for a while. I would like to try the Light engine for my analyses. Thank you for your work.

Best regards,
Fringe.

Yes, I am currently only answering a few emails. There are many that I get. Please send me an email with the subject Light 26.3.

My best regards,
