  1. Hello Gurcan.Have a question.Do you know if some or all of those wonderful arm8 compiles made by Aprijal in the last 12 months (Stockfish 8 Gull 3.0 Protector, Vajolet etc) were made with static libraries? I ask because there were some really good engines compiled and wanna know if they are Universally compatible going forward? Otherwise we have to rely on the arm7 versions I guess..

    1. I really don't know. I only have a MTK6752 processor to run arm8 builds and i never had issues with AP builds. Maybe someone with Snapdragon can answer. However i don't remember that anyone complained about them. Based on that, we can assume they were compiled using -static switch.

    1. Glad to hear that. But Alexei is the one to applause. He doesn't let us miss Aprijal and Jim.

  4. BTW Gurcan I just noticed yesterday that Senpai arm7 that comes with Chess engines collection (OEX) from Acip Ape Studios is at least 25% faster than Senpai (arm5JA) on my galaxy s7.Should be universally faster.Are you still using Senpai(arm5JA) in rapidroid.? Its not a big deal but it should play stronger..

    1. In Rapidroid it's still JA arm5. It had defeated the original and JA arm7 was a big disappointment. Regarding Ape arm7 build, yes it looks way faster. I'll introduce that one. PS: That's not the case with Arasan 20.2 APE. It loses convincingly to Aprijal's 20.0.

    2. Yes Arasan 20.2 Ape actually runs in a buggy manner on my mobile.Every now and then it only displays a evaluation no variation and as its about to play a move i get engine terminated error etc.i cant use the engine.Anyway Senpai should gain at least 15 points now as it closes in on 3000 elo ;-)
