More Details:All engines analyzed with new OTS v6.0 (100 positions)Derived from 500+ pos. unsolved in 2 sec/move, 1 coreBut all are solved at slower time control and more coresDuring current suite creation: several Top engines usedOTS based on SCCT tours, it's available for: DownloadNote: Download package contains Analysis results too..
Meanwhile,The buggy engines (as far as I remember...):Booot 7.3, Zappa Mexico II, Junior 13.3 etcNote also some are not stable under Fritz 14,But exactly the same ones worked well underNewer GUIs...I mean such as under Fritz 15,Here I refer in case of NON-SF Based ones..
Btw, SF-PB vers. are tested several timesUnder Fritz 13, Fritz 14, Fritz 15 and almost Same points are generated...so GUIs can'tBe as issue here regarding why suffer a bit..
What I can say more, no doubt thatKookaburra, C-Dragon, MagicKnight, Fidelio..Are as 'best solvers' in openings theory !! PlusEven old-dated: Cfish NON NN + Raubfish areReally not so bad (in opening knowledge) too!And the both mentioned Top engines are quiteFrequent used in book tournaments as well !!And as other reason about why so frequent..?Cfish + Raubfish are very small in size...andAs one of most important: not so Drawish !!
And what a pity also that,Some 'clever' guys have serious problemsTo see the reality.. theirs view is so poor thatThey have no clue about what is going on!Anyhow...let's hope that (since today):All of us will start to learn a little bit more!
Let's hope also that,All my latest produced results to be useful..Sure we need more of them..but if nothingElse we have some new data to compare...
As final words I wish to say also that,Many thanks to all authors, without you:All these useful results would not exist!
