OOTP 10 and 64-bit Vista

RabbiOReilly · 04-13-2009, 04:58 PM

Will OOTP 10 run on 64-bit Vista Home Premium?

I know it won't take advantage of the 64-bit processor, but will it run at all?

OOTP 9 loads up fine on my vista 64 bit home premium machine. The only caveat is that I've not actually played a game yet as I just got the computer about 2 weeks ago.
I am on Dec 31, 2017 in my ongoing dynasty and am waiting for v10 to import and continue. I can however open and use every menu (ie view news, history, stats, player cards etc.) in the game so I don't think playing a game out is going to be any problem.

To Echo comments made by Sweed, OOTP 9 loads just fine on my 64 bit system. Further, I have played out or simmed 70+ years and have had no problems. Hopefully version 10 is just as friendly.

I play on Vista 64 Home Premium as well. I frequently have problems with my menus and occasionally crash. I need to save frequently and have watch my clicking a bit.

I've not experienced any issues with OOTP X on either of my Vista 64 Pro PCs.

And the same - dual core laptop with 64 Vista - no issues.

Guess that answers that!

I know you've been answered already but yes it'll work fine. Nine works on 64 Home Premium and I've gone through 120ish seasons now.

OOTPX has run perfectly fine on my Vista-64 laptop.

Malleus Dei · 04-16-2009, 10:42 AM

Seems like it will work.

Bagpipes5 · 04-16-2009, 07:29 PM

It will work absolutely, but will it take advantage of the 64-bit architecture? Probably not but maybe someone else can confirm that...
