iopq, thank you very much! Do you know how to run on a board 25x25 or 13x19? I changed in config.txt "board-size": 25, it hangs after several moves

It is very hard to beat ELF when it plays white.

KataGo works in gogui-twogtp, and with other boards, for example 13x13

Simply put, no. Those are maybe going to be trained by other people, but KG is so strong at it it would take a really long time from scratch, even using KG code

lightvector, could you answer what will be in the new release of your wonderful program, and when will it possibly be released?

Lizzie v0.7 - Windows versions also come with KataGo and its latest 20 block network.

I don't have much experience getting the CUDA version working in Windows, as I personally don't even have a GPU on a windows machine. Probably the information you need about all the different versions on windows should be here though:

Thanks for KataGo, using it right now with Lizzie 0.7 (GPU version works right out of the box in windows.)

KataGo is doing a fine job at using my GPU. For the first time i hear coil whine during analyzing or gameplay on my 1080 TI. (I limit my GPU with MSI Afterburner during analyzing to get rid of the coil whine.)

Funny fact. The whine is only there with the KataGo network not with the LZ network. Perhaps Kata is using the GPU more effectivly :-)

(Actually there is a very silent whine with the LZ network too but I was not able to hear it now or in the past without the reference to the Kata induced whine.)

with Lizzie.0.7.Windows.x64.CPU and Lizzie.0.7.Windows.x64.GPU included the same KataGo files, OpenCL. CUDA and OpenCL are completely different things. nothing new is needed to start KataGo OpenCL. To start KataGo CUDA, you need to install CUDA 10.1, download cudnn, perhaps update Microsoft .NET Framework, install Visual Studio. it takes proudly more time and much more disk space. I'm currently looking for a minimum size Visual Studio for a fully functional work CUDA
