Thanks for the info, much appreciated. :)

With some workaurounds I solve almost all issues on BanksisaGui 0.58c. For example when it crashes more times and it resets all the layout settings, I restore my preferred configuration with a click:

As expected, Berserk 13 ( 2751 ELO on SPCC ) is much stronger than Ethereal Proteus NNUE on long time games CLASSICAL 25 + 0 - Result +6 / 40 games

Since my mod is based on Ethereal 12.69 no-NNUE ( 2406 ELO CCRL ) a performance of 2544 ELO like ArasanX is already very good for me, after changing ...

Wow! Ethereal Proteus NNUE (aka Etherlito Pro) is doing really well even against Rubichess 240112 ( 2518 ELO ), better than expected!!

NOTE: I will not count all the games lost for time by both engines :)

Has somebody Ethereal 14.25 NNUE (even on Playchess) so I can challenge it online? I was ...

AlexChess

Rubichess 240112 (no mods) is losing a lot of games by time , even on 25+1 time control, so I've restarted the test using 25+5 .
It always use all the time available, and that is bad since if on servers there is a lag it cannot manage those critical situations. :oops:

Despite both Andreas think ...

All top engines use NNUE or NN even if they are not stockfish(lc0 is using NN and not NNUE)

I read that Weiss is the best engine that does not use NNUE in TCEC when Xiphos 0.6 64-bit 4CPU is the CCRL leader of not stockfish version that do not use NNUE

CCRL has

Etherlito is a clear joke, making fun of the expected future shitty clones. Which came true exactly as I predicted. You running it is top irony.
