Piston projects won't compile on 64 bit Windows #326

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

When attempting to compile an Piston project on Windows x64, I get an issue with a file called miniz.c, which apparently doesn't support x64. Is there any way around this?

I believe this is caused by GCC not including 64-bit support. More details at https://www.reddit.com/r/rust_gamedev/comments/3v5vpq/piston_projects_wont_compile_on_x64_windows/cxkk68i

Thanks. I saw that and just got an x64 compiler installed. I could've sworn I mine was 64 bit, but apparently not. Sorry for wasting your time.
