Hi there,
release-notes.txt (wow, 37 years chess programming) and the file "Wasp_101-x64" with the original main logo by Wilhelm Hudetz can be found under:
Wasp by John Stanback:
http://www.amateurschach.de/main/_wasp.htm
Wasp 1.01 x64 is the ~ 300 Elo stronger successor of Zarkov (strongest version of Zarkov) and UCI compatible.
This release is in my opinion particularly.
I am using Wasp for self playing because the style of the engine is "human-like".
Thanks John!
Best
Frank

A pity it does not run on older quad cores (2009/2010).Frank Quisinsky wrote:Hi there,

The ELO increase in 32bit to 64bit isn't that useful for guys who use these engines as an opponent for training games. Gonna get smashed most of the time anyway haha.F.Huber wrote:And also a pity that there's no 32bit version!Guenther wrote: A pity it does not run on older quad cores (2009/2010).

Based on Frank's words, I'm excited to find ANOTHER human-like engine!
