...No. 64bit executable is just going to be more work for little gain. The large address aware header for 64bit OSes is more than enough to offset the 32bit virtual addressing space disadvantage, and Demigod isn't going to use 4GB of addressing space in the forseeable future.

Both Hellgate London & Crysis both had very visible increases in performance with exacly the same graphical settings {usually higher settings}.

Also not really for these forums but MS sql server 64 bit performs better that MS sql 32bit installations.

So this post was just a general post for support of 64bit OS's that games developers are creating seperate .exe for them.  And as this was beta 1 though if they wanted to suport that then this was as good as time as any to check the engine on the hardware.

Not to worry if its a no go.... was just a query.

Hi Gabberkooij,

I'm not sure about that.  Its like saying that all your windows 64bit servers will only be able to share files with 64 bit OS's.   like both examples Crysis and Helgate London they both play online and both 64 & 32 bit online gaming come together in one game.

But in all developments there are bad and good ways to develop.  there should not be any technical issues having a 32bit and a 64 bit gaming system as long as the network interface development is done properly.

Not to worry though the current Beta 1 is not very taxing anyway.  Hopefully Demigod will take on from the lead of "Company of Heroes" for the final graphic quality & AI.

again my 2c

i'm testing it on vista64.

would love to see a x64compile of demigod, but we talked about this in supcom already, don't think it will happen, too bad.
