windows version

[nambung]

can we expect a windows version this year?

[CGLemon]

Sorry about that! I can not promise it because I have no Windows device and programming tool currently. I plan to develop the Windows next year, may do it on March if I can go to the college to get free Windows device.

[cryptsport]

when can expect the windows version?

[CGLemon]

I finally get the windows these days. I will do it next month.

[CGLemon]

It is Windows binary version with Eigen backend (CPU-only). May someone give it a try?

Here is binary file on my google drive. The version is v0.4.1. You may download the weights here.

Thanks!

[cryptsport]

I'll try with pleasure! what interests you first of all? a match with katago?

[cryptsport]

requires libc++.dll

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport

Thanks! I will fix it.

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport

I update the static version on the original google drive. Should not depend any library now.

[cryptsport]

works in sabaki! (win 7, 13x13, 19x19, game, analyze) thank you very much! with what parameters to check?

[cryptsport]

Zenith Go 7 - Sayuri, Zen gave up on move 205 (Zenith Go 7 9dan, Sayuri -t 3 -w uce14-swa-1700k-v2.bin.txt), Zen spent a little more time

@cryptsport

Thanks for your help! I am curious about the playouts per second on your computers. Adding the option -a will show the MCTS diagnostic verbose.

[cryptsport]

QuadCore AMD Athlon X4 950, 3700 MHz (37 x 100)

[CGLemon]

Each core produces 4~5 playouts per second. Look like 15x192 network is too big for most users.

how to launch last windows version? requires libc++.dll

[CGLemon]

@nambung
Thanks to report this issue. The binary file of last version can be found in the release page. But I do not really understand Windows environment. Seem the libc++.dll is not included in the orginal Windows. You may need to download MinGW, please see Windows Version (Experiment).

@cryptsport
How did you solve this problem? Did download any developing tool on your computer? Like, Visual Studio or MinGW. Thanks!

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
it doesn't work for me either. in the old version, you changed the binary file so that there was no dependence on any library (see the posts above)

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
Thanks! I will try to fix it when I have free time.

[cryptsport]

the latest version works if add to the folder libc++.dll and libunwind.dll. Sayuri plays interesting! please make windows version 25x25!

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
Update the static version and 25x25 for v0.6.1 here. Does the static version still need the DLL files?

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
everything is ok, .dll does not require. thank you so much for the 25x25 version!

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
I update the cuda version and the depending cuda dll here. May you give it a try? Thanks!

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
Good news! I'll try it now!

[cryptsport]

requires cudart64_12.dll

[cryptsport]

I found cudart64_12.dll. now requires api-ms-win-core-libraryloader-l1-2-0.dll. I found, requires api-ms-win-security-systemfunctions-l1-1-0.dll, I found, error when launching the application

[cryptsport]

sorry, I didn't see it right away, I added the cuda12-dll folder. the same mistakes, except cudart64_12.dll

[hope366]

I got an error message that cudart64_12.dll and cublas64_12.dll are missing in my environment.
I haven't been able to get them, so I can't get them to work.

[hope366]

cublas64_12.dll
cublasLt64_12.dll
cudart64_12.dll
I got these three files. When started from the command line, the CUDA version worked as follows.

However, when starting with LizzieYzy, the following error occurred.
When I started the CUDA version, it put a load on the GPU (it felt like the analysis was starting).
However, candidate moves are not displayed on the board. The moment I placed a stone manually, the following error occurred.

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
Thanks! I think I miss the Windows SDK packet.

@hope366
Thanks! You started the engine successfully. The engine was aborted because it encountered unexpected condition. This is a bug which I missed.

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
@hope366

Fix the bug. Do you still encounter the same problem?

[hope366]

I tried running your newly prepared "Sayuri-v0.6.1-cuda12-windows-x86.exe" on LizzieYzy.
When it started up, there were no errors and it appeared to be successful. However, candidate moves are not displayed on the board. GPU is under load during analysis. It looks like it's analyzing internally. If you stop the analysis with the space key, the GPU load will disappear.
"Game mode" seems to be working properly.

[cryptsport]

error when launching the application

[cryptsport]

@hope366
which version of LizzieYzy did you use?

[hope366]

@cryptsport This is a compilation of the latest main branch.
It is almost the same as the latest version "v2.5.3", but includes some fixes and improvements made since the release of 2.5.3.

[CGLemon]

@hope366
That was weird. You may try to check the engine status via terminal and add -a option to show the search result. Enter the genmove <color> or analyze <color> to start the search.

@cryptsport
May you simply describe the error? Did it still miss the api-ms-win-* dll? May you add all three cuda dll?

[cryptsport]

I run it from the command line. there are 2 files in the folder: exe and network. asks cudart64_12.dll. I am adding it and 2 others from the folder cuda12-dll. asks api-ms-win-core-libraryloader-l1-2-0.dll. I am adding it. asks api-ms-win-security-systemfunctions-l1-1-0.dll. I am adding it. issues an "application error"

[cryptsport]

for convenience, I renamed Sayuri-v0.6.1-cuda12-windows-x86.exe to Sayuri.exe and zero-swa-2200k.bin.txt to zero.bin.txt. It shouldn't affect, right?

[hope366]

@CGLemon
When launched from the command line, the analysis appears to be working.
I didn't understand how to use -a 😅

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
To rename it is Ok.

@hope366
Add the -a here,

Sayuri.exe -w weights.txt -t 1 -b 1 -p 400 -a

But I don’t see any problem. Maybe the problem is in the LizzieYzy.

[hope366]

I tried -a.
As you can see, although the analysis appears to be occurring internally, there are still no candidate moves displayed on the board.
Does this mean that LizzieYzy needs special code to display sayuri's suggested moves?

[CGLemon]

The format of Sayuri’s analyze is almost as same as LeelaZero. Only different is additional scoreLead label.

The verbose shows the search is correct but LizzieYzy does not display the move. May you try to use Sabaki? If Sabaki is correct, the problem is in the LizzieYzy.

[hope366]

I tried it with Sabaki.
The top one is KataGo and the bottom one is Sayuri.
Even in Sabaki, the analysis results for Sayuri were not displayed.
Analysis results will not be displayed, but you can play against Sayuri.

[CGLemon]

Thank to report this issue!

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
I tested the engine on the raw WIndows10 and it worked well. What's your Windows version?

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
Windows 7

[CGLemon]

@hope366
Fix the analyzing bug on MSVC. I think it may work on LizzieYzy. The engine is here.

@cryptsport
I see this web. I think it means the last SDK does not support for Windows 7.

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
I will update Windows soon. Sorry for the unnecessary trouble!

[hope366]

@CGLemon
I tried "Sayuri-v0.6.1-cuda12-windows-x64.exe" that you newly prepared.
As you can see, LizzieYzy has a candidate move😄
thank you very much.

[fhb231231]

I'd like to play with the older weights (v0.5 and before) on Windows. I tried "Sayuri-v0.5.0-eigen-windows-x64.exe" on the Release page, but didn't work out. I'm wondering if it's the "libc++.dll" issue mentioned previously. Is it possible to help recompile the binary?

[CGLemon]

@fhb231231

I update the last v0.5 executed file here. I still recommend to use the last engine because some bugs are fixed.

[fhb231231]

Many thanks and well noted.

[fhb231231]

Is it possible to compile a cuda version of 0.5 engine?

[CGLemon]

@fhb231231
The v0.5.x engine has some bugs on MSVC. That means I could not compile executable file directly. Why do you need the old version engine? Did you just want to play with the old weights?

[fhb231231]

Right that I'm playing the v0.5 weights with other bots at different level of strength. The cpu engine becomes too slow with the increasing playouts and that's why I'm wondering if the cuda version of v0.5 engine is possible. Don't bother if it cannot be done quickly as I understand that the v0.5 is obsolete.

[CGLemon]

I see. I would make current version to support old weights.

[fhb231231]

@CGLemon
That's a great option, thanks.

[cryptsport]

plays well! Interesting!
please make version 7-eigen 25x25!

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport
I will release the engine supporting v4 weights few days later. I think I will release 25x25 version at the same time.

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
Many thanks!

[CGLemon]

@cryptsport

Done here.

[cryptsport]

@CGLemon
thank you very much!
