I had a look at the original author's article. It does things like perform static evaluations in the interior of the search tree which are very, very expensive. I used his code and implemented it pretty much verbatim in my program. The cost was too much. Even with limitations such as the recently posted ones from DarkThought, it seems to me that putting the static evaluation in the interior really prevents good use for anything but trivial evaluation. How about just using the difference of the material value for both sides as the score to be used by the Deep Null Extension when it needs a score and forgoing the static evaluation in the interior? --Stuart
