RoboKewlper 0.047a: Engine Executable and Book Request

Post by supernova »

Hello, everyone:

It seems that the link http://kirr.dyndns.org/chess/engines/No ... ollection/ is broken. If anyone could lend a helping hand to find this legacy engine, it would be super appreciated!

Thank you so much!

Regards.

Either Kirill forgot about this, or it will never be resurrected again.
In later case I might check, which programs are solely relying on this download resource in my XB/UCI chronology
and then I will put something up myself, if everything can be recollected again. I have huge archives and backups here ;)

P.S. I will upload Robokewlper in a few hours.

Hi,
I have the exe, but not the book, without which it won’t start.

Well,
I got lucky, it's super simple. A text file with 'e2e4 e7e5' works. Put it here.

I have not got the book. Just for the record, it might be around 50 MB:

New WinBoard compatible engine - ROBOKewlper 0.047a by Kevin Markman

I found the original links searching here and there, but are completely useless nowadays:

[NOT WORKING ANYMORE] http://www.codenet.se/alarm/ROBOKewlper ... NOBOOK.zip
[NOT WORKING ANYMORE] http://www.codenet.se/alarm/ROBOKewlper/Book.zip

Also at wayback not much saved from those old links except Embracer it seems.

And yes the original book seems around 45 MB.

Cheers from Regensburg, still digesting from a late dinner.

(It seems over 80 entries in my chronology have a link to Norberts collection, but not yet checked how much have alternatives available)

Well, now I have some doubts about doing some extra work, as long as (unknown) moderators here run amok and defend (long known!) trolls and instead delete posts of users who try to give more informations. Something is wrong.

RoboKewlper 0.047a with original book:

https://mega.nz/file/LhcSFQaB#stx2PXpNa ... GLAqc5Bswg

For some reason, my x10hosting site is giving expired certificate errors, so I am using my mega.nz account instead.

Somewhat off topic, but sadly, the download links at Ron Murawski's Chess Engines Wiki (http://computer-chess.org/doku.php?id=c ... nload_list) are broken, but I think most of them should be archived at archive.org

For example, the link for Adam is

Code: Select all

http://computer-chess.org/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=computer_chess:wiki:download:adam-3.3uci.zip
but can be prefixed with https://web.archive.org/web/

Code: Select all

https://web.archive.org/web/http://computer-chess.org/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=computer_chess:wiki:download:adam-3.3uci.zip
and now it should be downloadable. (not clickable, but I used the code feature so that the full link would be shown)
