This position happened in a test game:

[diag]8/r6p/P3R3/3P4/5k2/7K/8/8 b - - 0 1 [/diag]
Here, Zappa played Rxa6??
If I run a fresh analisys in other computer (so no position learning or whatever), Zappa thinks:

I repeated Jos?'s position under the following circumstances:

- P3 under Win2k
- Zappa installed under Arena as a UCI engine

You can see that Zappa did not make the mistake Jos? described (at least not up to depth 14). I think comparing this with the logfile Jos? provides may reveal the problem.

Note that in the end EGTB cache is set to 0 as John Brownlee explained it in the CCC forum.

I forgot to say that I used UCI protocol with default options.

Jos?, I have the feeling that incomplete 5-man TB's can be the reason. What if you repeat your experiment without them?

Hi,

I encountered a very similar problem and it seems that it is related to the size of the EGTB cache, since with any other cache sizes than 8M the problem will appear.

In the following position

[diag]8/2R2nk1/6p1/5rNp/8/4K3/8/8 w - - 6 70[/diag]
8/2R2nk1/6p1/5rNp/8/4K3/8/8 w - - 6 70

Zappa 1.0 played 70.Ng5xf7 with a score of +0,10. It can be reproduced in analysis mode.

I encountered a very similar problem and it seems that it is related to the size of the EGTB cache, since with any other cache sizes than 8M the problem will appear.

Martin

Hi all,

I set my EGTB cache to 4 MB's in Arena, and, as you can see from my log, Zappa rounds this down to 0. Still, in Jos?'s position it does not want to capture at a6.

Hi G?bor,

can you please try my position on your machine?

Strange. I found the same thing with your position, while there is still no problem with Jos?'s position.
Here is the log file including both analyses:

I set my EGTB cache to 4 MB's in Arena, and, as you can see from my log, Zappa rounds this down to 0. Still, in Jos?'s position it does not want to capture at a6.

Hi G?bor,

can you please try my position on your machine?

Best,

Martin

How about this, played on my Athlon XP, with full set of up to 5-man EGTB's. Now in Jos?'s position Zappa makes Rxa6 while in Martin's position it sees mate in 9 via Rxf7!

The bug is definetly related to EGTB's. When I disable them, Zappa doesn't make the same mistakes again (I've seen several loses by Zappa in similar positions).

Yes, and it is related to EGTB cache. When using Zappa as a WB engine, none of the above described errors occur. The difference is that Zappa allocates 0 memory when UCI, but normal amount when WB.

Here is a log file of the two problems, Zappa running under Arena as a WB engine:

So te bug seems to be that missing 'M' when giving the size of the EGTB cache.

I have no problem with Zappa and TBS under WB, _if_ I set
another size than default 8M.
With default 8M or even explicetely giving 8M (despite it
is already the default value), Zappa e.g. cannot mate with
KQ vs. K!

Hi G?nther,

There is no problem under WB because EGTB cache size is determined in zappa.ini by a line such as tbcache=16M, where the 'M' tells Zappa to use 16 megabytes. The problem is UCI specific because then Zappa thinks it is given only 16 bytes which it rounds down to 0.

Hi Gabor,

Please read my post again, there is _also_ a problem
for Zappa with TBS under WB, when using 8MB cache.

Yes, G?nther, you are right. Also the Jos? and Martin positions result in strange evaluations when using 8 MB tablebase cache. All other values seem to work, though.

Best wishes,
