64 Bit Linux Server


(redhorse - fragportal.de) #1

Hi SD Team,

I’m not sure, but I think I can remember Activision talking about 64Bit Linux server versions, when AMD announced the Opteron.

Do you know anything more about it?
Will there be a 64bit version available for ET?

TIA and keep up the good work

Andreas

So i guess no 64 Bit Linux support from SD?


(Hewster) #3

has the Opteron been released ?

if not… it must be hard to add support :confused:

Would 64bit really help ET at all? I don’t think it could really take advantage of the features that the Opteron offers over 32bit chips.

yes, the opteron is released, first system is in testing here now :slight_smile:

no, 64 bit will not give any advantage to the players - but for the gameserver providers, cause they need “less” hardware and space for hosting the servers :slight_smile:

cheers
