64 bit Assault Cube? #450

Closed chrisjd20 closed 2 years ago

chrisjd20 commented 2 years ago

So the current version of assault cube ac_client.exe runs as 32 bit. Is there a 64 bit version?

chrisjd20 commented 2 years ago

Or perhaps you all have build instructions somewhere for compiling to 64 bit?

You start off with https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/how-to-configure-visual-cpp-projects-to-target-64-bit-platforms?redirectedfrom=MSDN&view=msvc-170 and then begin the odysee of making the libraries work. See the win-x64 branch. I ended up with an EXE but the current state of this branch is not ready for production. There are still unresolved conflicting zlib instances in play and the whole starter and installer situation is not really adressed, I simply wrote an assaultcube64.bat. Getting them to live side-by-side is left as exercise for the interested reader. The benefit of a WIN64 exe over a WIN32 exe is probably negligible in ACs case.

Thanks. Yea I would agree. Thanks for the resources.
