Info version 4.15.1 (last WB verson!): Booot have his own Endgame Tablebase generator for version 4.1 and later.
You can start the generator by double click on "BoootEGTB.exe", the egtbs will be save in the same folder!
It creates all 3-men and some important 4-men tablebases and bitbases.
BoootEGTB needs 64MB of FREE RAM for calculating and about 120MB of disk space for storing files.
On my 1GHz Athlon it cost about 1 hour.
Files:
*.FTW, *.FTB - full DTM tablebases.
*.BBW *.BBB - bitbases for all 4-men endgames.
If you want Booot to use EGTBs just type correct path to folder with them on Booot.cfg :
- - - -
EGTB_path=D:\BoootEGTBS\
or
EGTB_path=\
When files are on Booots folder.
