Compiling Fairy Stockfish

Compiling Fairy-Stockfish works analogous to official Stockfish.

Compiling version for large boards

Just add largeboards=yes to your normal make command, e.g., use make build ARCH=x86-64 largeboards=yes instead of make build ARCH=x86-64. Note that the version for large boards currently only supports 64bit hardware.

Compiling on Windows

See https://github.com/glinscott/fishtest/wiki/Building-stockfish-on-Windows or http://support.stockfishchess.org/kb/advanced-topics/compiling-stockfish-on-windows for instructions on how to compile Stockfish on/for Windows. It works in an analogous for Fairy-Stockfish, you just need to clone this repository instead of official Stockfish.

If you encounter errors when compiling with certain compilers or hardware, please report the issue.
