V is correct although to be honest I would have thought since this is the Aces High forum it would be obvious that I was refering to that game.

Trust me, it was obvious.   Obtusiveness is seen as a virtue in some circles I suppose.    :cheers:

I think the DX11 version is only 32bit, not 64bit.

Obviously the game is 32 bit since it runs on 32 bit operating systems as well. 32 bit programs run very well on a 64 bit system. Running a 64 bit application on a 32 bit system can be done by using emulators or other artificial tricks - something that is not meant for the average Joe.

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.

I think I remember we discussed this before? In a 32-bit game you get 4GB of memory, which should be all AH needs. I think they load everything into memory and they really don't need more. If that is still true, then the only benefit a 64-bit version would provide would be concerning artificial intelligence which we don't have. Ah does have a limited AI (I think), but even that doesn't need a 64-bit version. In AH I would expect a 64-bit version might be needed if you wanted AI that could learn and modify its actions.

Now, graphics cards have a completely different system for bit-widths (I think 256-bit actually). That's why a GPU can do textures, vertices, 3D audio, PhysX, and so on all at the same time.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.
