I think very few customers have a 64bit OS and it will stay that way for a long time. I think many now have a dual core system but very few other than us Computer Chess geeks are running a 64bit os - so for the majority of customers 32bit results are more interesting. Surely the main purpose of any...

difficult position for Hiarcs

Hi, Stumbled about this position in CCC. Strange that Hiarcs 11.2 has problems to find the mate without endgame tablebases in reasonable time compared to other engines. 8/8/8/6k1/3K2p1/8/5R2/8 w - - 0 1 [fen]8/8/8/6k1/3K2p1/8/5R2/8 w - - 0 1[/fen] 13 +1703 58 349127 Ke5 g3 Rg2 Kg4 Ke4 Kg5 Rxg3+ Kf6 ...

Re: Pasting FEN, without identifiers, into a GUI

I tried just copying 5n2/B3K3/2p2Np1/4k3/7P/3bN1P1/2Prn1P1/1q6 w and pasting into into the game notation window of Ole's Sigma Chess 6.1.5, but it didn't work. However, when I tried the same thing with Rolf Exner's ExaChess 3.1.3, it worked perfectly. From ExaChess, it takes just a few clicks to co...

second guess 413.

I don't know if this number has been guessed before, but I don't want to read all the posts.

Re: Nalimov 5 pieces Tablebases (OS X)

I believe there is a small bug in SigmaChess/Hiarcs with the 5-piece Tablebases. Examples: 3KQ3/8/8/8/8/2n5/3b4/3k4 w - - 0 1 Hiarcs: mate in 25 Shredder Online: mate in 39 3k4/2rp4/8/8/8/8/3Q4/3K4 w - - 0 1 Hiarcs: mate in 25 SO: mate in 51 Hiarcs plays the right moves, but the mate announcements ...

Lol, 'GCC' is the "offending" word. :lol:

It seems to be not "offensive" on CCC, it is posted there all the time.

When it is enclosed in quotes or paratheses (GCC), it works.

or just say only
gcc
in a line. 8)

Intel Compiler for Mac

I wonder if the Hiarcs team already tried out the Intel C/C++ Compiler for Mac and whether there is a speed increase for Hiarcs on Core2Duo using the Intel Compiler? As far as I read in the descriptions, it should even be possible to generate Universal binaries PowerPC (gcc) / Intel (IntelC++). Ther...

Ok, dass klingt ja nicht schlecht. Man müsste mal im englischen Bereich nachfragen, ob die Intel-Mac Version mit gcc4.0 oder dem neuen Intel Compiler hergestellt wurden. Ich vermute von den Werten die du auf dem Dell erreichst, wurde die Hiarcs Mac version mit gcc4 compiliert. Mit dem Intel Compiler...
