"A Master of Go", iOS/iPadOS Go AI app

Limeztone san,

I am glad to see that you seem happy^^

As KataGo weights seems update not frequently, I will keep the latest weight in the app and will manage by KataGoGXXX_bYYcZZZetc.

Now I am considering to move the weight choice to main menu. Please wait for a while.

Publishing another KataGo weights on the net itself is easy, but I have not decide the internal metadata for downloading yet. Please wait for a while, too.

About "number of visits per move", I answered previously and no change of answer currently.

I think that you can ask Pandanet for your request as it is how to export an SGF file. They seems provide it only for e-mail.

Thank you for your comments!

As KataGo weights seems update not frequently, I will keep the latest weight in the app and will manage by KataGoGXXX_bYYcZZZetc.

But unfortunately that means that your users don't know which net it is. Right now I don't know if it is g170-b20c256x2-s1039565568-d285739972 or g170-b20c256x2-s1420141824-d350969033. Removing "c256x2" and replace it with "s1033" or "s1420" would help a lot. Eg KataGoG170b20s1033. "c256x2" is kind of redundant.

Now I am considering to move the weight choice to main menu. Please wait for a while.

May be you did not really understand, I don't want to be able to select the weight in the main menu. I just want it to be displayed there. So I know which net I'm about to play against. I thought it was a good idea, but if it's hard work, let it be.

Publishing another KataGo weights on the net itself is easy, but I have not decide the internal metadata for downloading yet. Please wait for a while, too.

But PLEASE, include g170e-b15 in your next and future releases! As that will be a great net to play against. (and fast enough)

I think that you can ask Pandanet for your request as it is how to export an SGF file. They seems provide it only for e-mail.

That is not true! It is not abvious, but if you hold down on one of your played games (sgf) for a second or two. A dialog with more choices will appear! I think it should be possible for you to make your app show up in that dialog.

Limeztone san,

1. You can think that it is the latest one.
(I do not like to discuss about this issue. I will change it when I think that I need.)

2. I understand your request. My plan will satisfy your request.

3. Please wait for a while.

4. Thank you for your information! I tried holding down sgf in Panda shows and it shows the app icon. I am sorry that it seems an iOS 13 bug in your case.

Thank you!

I respect that you don't want to display the s-number of the weight file!

But maybe you could give the full name of the weight file in your release notes.
Which by the way are excellent, way better than for most ios-apps.

Thank you, y_ich san!

The release of v5.0.2 made me very happy

Is there any forum (besides my friends) where you would like me to promote your excellent app?

[y_ich]

Limeztone san,

I am glad to hear happy from you^^

Some peole kindly wrote reviews on App Store, Some people kindly tweet, and some people kindly upload videos to YouTube.
Any forums which are convenient for you are welcome!

Bought this a few days ago. Also looking forward to the future development!

Satorian san,

Thank you for purchasing my app and your cheers!

Dear y_ich,

your continued attention to your users here has played a major role in the purchase decision. Well done, both on the app and supporting your users!

y_ich san,

Is the KataGo 15b weight file not capable of 9x9 and 13x13 as the 10b and 20b are?
Or is it a glitch in the gui of the app? Because when one select the smaller boards the 15b weight file disappear as a choice in the settings window.

[y_ich]

Limeztone san,

I uploaded KataGo weights for 9x9 and 13x13.
The URLs are,

9x9: https://github.com/new3Rs/a_master_of_g ... _fp16.json

13x13: https://github.com/new3Rs/a_master_of_g ... _fp16.json

Grünauer san,

Thank you for reporting the issues.

I could not reproduce either.

About the latter case, the screenshot shows "0nps", which indicates that the engine have stopped.
The candidates must be for some previous position.

I am not sure whether it is related, KataGo engine was unstable when suspending and resuming.
I fixed it in the next version(5.0.3) and have just released the version now.

Thank you for your cooperations!

And new 15 blocks net to!

You are a hero y_ich san!

PS Marcel, I could not reproduce your errors (iPad Air 2019 ios 13.3).

[Limeztone]

y_ich san,

I noticed that the .json files for the new 15 block net you uploaded has the wrong board size for the 13x13 and 9x9 nets.
