GoGui new version 1.5.1

[Rémi]

I tried with the latest katago release, and it accepts board sizes up to 29. 25 was already supported by the previous version of gogui. From the error message, you should be able to play on larger sizes by recompiling:

Code: Select all

boardsize 30
? unacceptable size (Board::MAX_LEN is 29, consider increasing and recompiling)

wonderful! can a new version appear within a month? I don't know how to run or compile master branch

Thank you for your answer, I'm very grateful for GoGUI (twogtp), I like it a lot, and I use it often.
I don't know how to compile or recompile.
I'll wait for future GoGUI or katago updates (or an already compiled, recompiled, or "ready to use" version )
Thank you for your work

Here is an experimental compile from the current master:
https://www.kayufu.com/files/gogui-7bba ... 97bcba.jar

Simply double-clicking the jar may work. If it does not, copy it into the directory where gogui.jar is installed. Please tell me if anything does not work.

thank you! I tried katago on boards 37 and 52 - it works! gogui-twogtp is not available yet, do I understand correctly?

I'll prepare a proper release in 1-2 weeks, probably.

I can't start gogui-twogtp (windows). is it different in the new version? can you give an example?

This release does not provide .exe files, so you have to use java to open the jar file. so, instead of

Code: Select all

gogui-twogtp.exe

You can run:

Code: Select all

java -jar gogui-twogtp.jar

On Linux or MacOS, you should be able to run the bash script in the bin directory, which does the "java -jar" thing inside.

thank you, it works!

Rémi
thank you so much for the update! the best program for matches! where can I watch the Crazy Zero game on board 37?

[And]

gogui-twogtp works without problems with katago on boards 37 and 52!!!

[And]

on board 37, after 1000 moves, the game stops (gogui-twogtp). how can I remove the restriction?

same problem

gogui-twogtp has a "-maxmoves" command-line option. So you can run with -maxmoves 100000 if you wish to increase it. I will modify the code to set a default value that depends on the board size, but I won't prepare a new release just for that.

edit: -1 means no limit. I will set the default value to -1.
