Jim Ablett´s compiles Crafty v16-19

[Norbert Raimund Leisner]

hello together,

does anyone of you still have Jim Ablett´s compiles of Crafty v16-19? I asked Jim therefore but it seems that he is very busy with other chess things at the moment , e.g. Linux distributions. I know the content of the website of Crafty Dinos - WBEC-Ridderkerk, of course.

I added Dann Corbit´s Crafties to CCWiki Oldies Collection List http://computer-chess.org/doku.php?id=c ... ction_list for historical purposes.

Best wishes,
Norbert

Hi Norbert,

I checked my engine collection and the first saved Jim Ablett compiles I have start at Crafty 23.0. Looking at the below post the 19.xx versions were available in the year 2005. That was long before I started saving engines. In the year 2005 I only saved a few engines here and there.

I do know that Jim released an 'oldies' engine collection that I did save. I'll try to locate it on the discs that I have and if any of the Crafty versions you are looking for are in it I will let you know.
