About Chiron 3 Chess Engine

Chiron 3 is about 60 points stronger than Chiron 2, supports multiple processors, Polyglot and CTG opening books, several endgame tablebases formats (Syzygy, Gaviota, ...). If you want a chance to win against Chiron, you can limit its playing strength (feedbacks are welcome). If you have played Ubisoft's Watchdogs you might already have played against a much weaker version of Chiron.
Chiron comes in both Chessbase and Open Exchange formats.

I like it due to the fact that you can adjust the engine strength.

It does not work with my new phone and it still stops on 8 cores. Can the developers do something about it it crashes on auto play.

M70%
by M####:

Strong engine, up there in competition with black mamaba 2.0. Makes slightly better or worse moves at times which I like about it, giving it it's own playing style, but tends to crash on auto play at end game. Hoping to see updates to this and performance and strength.
