This is an important step in Podium evolution (i think it’s too soon although). I cannot test x64 version 😥 in one or two years I hope do it

I think the way Frits has approached the 2.18 beta is the best way IMO. He knows that there are not that many of us who have x64 set ups, indeed maybe just a few of us so far excluding himself even for now as the dev, but wisely IMO he is at least making an x64 version available for testing for those of us who have an x64 system to test with.

Its definitely an important addition to Podium but I don’t think it will take any significant time away from the x86 versions development. I guess once Windows 7 arrives on October the 22nd…some time after that Frits will get an x64 copy.

In any case it’s an Alpha that has been released suggesting it is still early days for the x64 version. The 2.18 x86 version is already ahead of it at the Beta stage already. 😉

My initial results with the x64 version bear this out and as Frits said it may very well crash well…it did. 🙂 😛

Let me know when you have another x64 version to test…sadly this version cannot get past that error message. :-k
