Chess engines: Devre 3.0


UCI chess engines: Devre
Author: Ömer Faruk Tutkun  Rating CEDR=2908

Devre is an open-source UCI compatible chess engine written in C as a hobby project.The code is a bit badly written now but I'll try to make it cleaner and more efficent in my free time. Although Devre is an original chess engine written from scratch, I got great help from chessprogramming wiki , talkchess forum,stcokfish discord ,and some open-source C engines: Ethereal, Vice, CPW.

v.3.0
Changes
Fixed some bugs
SEE pruning in qsearch and Alpha Beta
Using SEE in move ordering
Futility Pruning
Switching from mailbox to bitboards
New net (trained with https://github.com/OmerFarukTutkun/NNUETrainer )
Added a Linux support
Embed nnue to exe
...
Although 7-8 months have passed from version 2.0, I couldn't make much progress. This version is 100 elo stronger than the previous one at STC.

Thanks to the testers who tested Devre, and the chess engine developers that helped me while developing my engine.
