Homer 2.01 chess engine under Arena

Post by Norbert Raimund Leisner »

Hello together,

exist anywhere on the web a Homer2.01 version, which can be downloaded without SETUP-routine?

If you install it with SETUP, you have to delete some files as the following:
> homer.ini
> learn.dat
> homer.log
> default.sty

or to confirm this message (and others) with OK.
[This message will come so long as these files aren´t deleted.]

Another bug: Homer 2.01 detected Windows Vista on my computer,
although I use XP SP3 (32bit version)

Who made similar experiences with Homer 2.01?

Other programs like Scidlet have 2 possibilies to download:
SETUP or no SETUP, why not Homer?

Regards,
Norbert

Hi Daniel,

I'd like including 64 bit version of your engine
in my tourneys. Your website says 64 bit is
coming soon. Could you perhaps send me
a download link?

best,
hi, merhaba, hallo HT
