Is it already 64bit?
« on: June 20, 2016, 11:14:59 pm »
This morning I downloaded df_43_04_win.zip, and unzipped it. When I started dwarf fortress.exe, it said that it is not a valid win32 application.

Then I tried downloading df_43_03_win.zip and starting 43.3, and it started normally.

It's still a 32-bit application, but Toady ran into some problem compiling the Windows version (he mentioned the compiler blowing up on him a couple times, and I'm guessing it's related to that).  There is an ongoing discussion about it in the DF Announcements thread.

I downloaded df_xp_test.exe, and it seems to work. That's great!
