SmartGo new version & KataGo & Leela Zero

[And]

SmartGo for Windows Version 3.1.7 (2019-10-10) https://www.smartgo.com/windows.html
Update to newest GoGoD collection of 105,323 games.

Leela Zero works with SmartGo
command line options:
leelaz --gtp --threads 4 --noponder -w Networkfile.txt

but KataGo does not work. can be configured KataGo?

I can't get KataGo working, and I can't get Leela working either. Any tips? Can you screenshot the add GTP part of SmartGo? Where is your network placed, in the networks folder? Did you run autogtp.exe beforehand? Did you unpack the .gz file?

[And]

I unpack, gz does not work

[And]

KataGo 1.3 works

[And]

for some reason I can’t connect both engines at once (KataGo & Leela Zero). after connecting the second, the first stops working. but for example KataGo and GnuGo work together

[Jujube]

Not working for me!

What version of Leela Zero are you using?

I have put Networkfile.txt in networks folder and in the root leelaz folder but it gives me the same response.

[Jujube]

Same for Katago.

[And]

What version of Leela Zero are you using?

leela-zero-0.17-win64
Does it work from the command line?

[Jujube]

It does yes. I'm on 0.17 too.

I wonder if SmartGo caches anything that's preventing recognising Leela as a valid program from my previous failed attempts?

Oh and, thanks for helping out

[And]

I think there is some kind of glitch in SmartGo. try options - reset all settings

[And]

I doubt that this will help, but for certain reasons I do not install any go-programs on the disk c:

Hurrah! That worked.

Katago isn't working yet but... Leela is. So, that's good enough.

Well, I'll leave now to see what SmartGo can actually do with Leela so, I might still be disappointed I guess it's not going to be as impressive as Lizzie, with score estimates on the intersections and the 'analyse in the background' mode while I explore variations hmm?

Thanks for your help! You are a shining example of lifein19x19 problem-solving.

Have you tried running KataGo on its own yet? Just in the command line directly, using the "benchmark" command, like:

"katago.exe benchmark -model YOUR_MODEL_FILE.txt.gz -config YOUR_GTP_CONFIG_FILE.cfg" (run tuning and benchmark)
"katago.exe gtp -model YOUR_MODEL_FILE.txt.gz -config YOUR_GTP_CONFIG_FILE.cfg" (run gtp)

What output does it produce? Running directly is always the first thing you should do when it seems things haven't worked - easier to see error messages when there's nothing between you in the bot hiding the possible errors.

[Jujube]

Yep, katago works fine in cmd and in Lizzie too. I'd prefer to use katago but there's another post on lifein19x19 from someone (Bonobo? I forget) that also can get SmartGo for Windows working with Lizzie but not with Katago. So I don't think it's anything your end.

[lightvector]

Weird.

Edit: Hmmm, in the above screenshots, is it really supposed to be the case that "command line options" also includes the executable name too?

I thought command line options normally means the options that you are passing TO the executable. So, like:

"katago.exe gtp -config FOO -model BAR" would have the executable be "katago.exe" and the command line options be "gtp -config FOO -model BAR".
