SUPER [!!]

hey im using original Rodent NNUE from the original dev (not from rebel site) with a net trained on kingbase, and caissaabse, just wondering if you can test it?

if there is an official release, yes.

the official release exists on the original rodent site through direct link only but its there. It comes with a basic 20mb Stockfish net. My net replaces that and it is a human net leading to very interesting play.

Any sample games? Would love to test that net if you're willing to share.

And perhaps a link.

Link for the net
Link for engine


Set nnuePercentage to 80 and classical to 20, or nnue to 65 and Classical to 35, both giving roughly equal level of play, just more stylistic. net is already included in the engine archive and will run immediately just make sure to set these settings and apply a personality. also some of the personalities have the selectivity set to 0 to get more human like search pruning, 140-170, if you want it more competitive in testing.

If you have an account on Nightmare:

. set pgn 1
. history ChessSystemTalX
. mailstored ChessSystemTalX "game number"

And you get the "game number" into your mail.

red flag

literally not a red flag, that is when pawel koziol made rodent nnue

http://rebel13.nl/windows/rodent-nn.html

As you can see I made a small net for Rodent based on Rodent data in April 2022 using the Toga search. As far as I have understood it is tested by the rating guys. But most of the rating list folks don't test engines that use verbatim nets of others. And I think that's a good decision, making a neural net is a massive job.

regardless what do you think of the net paired with rodent?

Maybe that's something for Brendan and Boban to judge as both are the better chess players.
