you mean

if(alpha<=(CHECKMATE-QVALUE))
{
   do_not_extent=true;
}

Does QVALUE mean QUEEN_VALUE? Is CHECKMATE same as -INF or +INF (or whatever max
value you use)? Where do you use the above, in normal search? Which part? And
what extensions are you disabling with the above?

I'm, asking so that it would be easier to understand what really is happening...
