64x version of Dominions?
I'am playing at win 7 64x.

Re: 64x version of Dominions?
It is not a ram issue. 2gig leaves plenty of room for the application. The sole determining factor for turn speed on modern machines is the speed of one core of your processor.
I've played Dominions on every type of PC imaginable, from netbooks to my top of the line i7 990x overclocked at 4.5 with 24gb ram and that is the only deciding difference as far as hardware goes. |
Re: 64x version of Dominions?
Is there a version that makes use of my 8 core AMD Bulldozer chipset?
I've been a real good boy this year so Santa can't deny this present I'm entitled to. hmm... |
Re: 64x version of Dominions?
I wish, but unfortunately it will only use 1 core :D.
Maybe COE 3 will utilize all cores! |
Re: 64x version of Dominions?
More specifically, dom3 is not multi-threaded, so it can't use mutliple cores. The best machine to run dom3 on is going to be one with the highest possible single-core performance.
This is an even bigger problem with, eg, Dwarf Fortress, which makes Dom3's runtime issues look like small potatoes, and is also single-threaded. |

Yes, there is a 64bit version of Dominions3.
I choose the download version, and it came with a 32bit executable and a 64bit executable - for Linux. :p |

Re: 64x version of Dominions?
Btw, if you really think your turns are slow because Dominions cannot utilize over 2gb of ram, there are programs out there that let you bypass the limit on 32 bit applications.
Here is a link to the one people were using to get around the 2gb limit for Elemental... http://forums.elementalgame.com/403315 |

The reason for 64 bit is to handle huge amounts of data. |
