Steam is updating KSP- Bye bey 64Bit

[EladDv]

Do i get an experimental copy by accident? or is 1.0 is coming out? i'll have to wait 1:15 hours to find out- turns out that this is to remove the 64 bit client from KSP

Haha, quick ... go into "Offline" mode so it doesn't auto-update back if they fix it.

[EladDv]

no i have to wait 1:15 hours until it will start the update

[Caelib]

It's definitely not 1.0 coming out ... I would anticipate that it will be in Experimentals for *at least* one more week.

[EladDv]

now i think that i shouldnt have said that

[smjjames]

It says 38 minutes in your screenshot.

Anyways, I already got hit by one where they apparently removed the 64-bit client part, which is kind of odd....

[EladDv]

well it's time not time to. (it's 23:33 here) and it's probably a bug as i pressed to get it in queue and it just launched the game. and the game still shows 0.90.0.705 please delete thread it's 64 bit client deletion

Seems to be others saying that its deleting the 64 bit client.

[EladDv]

oh it did do it

[Frybert]

So...steam update just deleted 64 bit of my computer?

ETA: Just noticed another thread changed its topic to this, this thread can be deleted/locked or whatever.

ETA2: MEEEEERGE!

R.I.P. 64bit

[T.A.P.O.R.]

Yep, my 64bit is gone too, not that I used it, but the update had me excited & confused before the morning coffee.

[Dizzle]

Assuming this is some kind of advance preparation for 1.0?

[smjjames]

I couldn't care less myself since I didn't use it, but it seems out of character (according to some posts) of them to suddenly do that without warning that it was going to happen. I mean, we knew that they stopped supporting windows 64x client for windows for 1.0, but to remove it for 0.90? That seems wierd.

I'm chalking up to a potential steam glitch.

[EladDv]

well at least i dont have to click on the options menu on the launcher if i want to play 32 bits (if i didnt it would launch the 64 version) plus is there anyway to have fullscreen windowed through steam?

[smjjames]

Kind of far in advance for 1.0.

I hope they didn't decide to rush through the experimentals.

Yeah, just set the games resolution to the desktop resolution that you use.

[EladDv]

i meant borderless windowed (sometimes referred as fullscreen windowed)

in steam add this under launch options -popupwindow

R.I.P. 64bit

The Windows 64bit shouldn't have happened. If people want to hack KSP to get 64-bit for 1.0, it's not hard.

[EladDv]

thanks! it works! (one more Q please- how do i combine it with other stuff like open GL command? a comma or a simple space?)

[RocketPilot573]

Rest in Pieces 64 bit.

[Frybert]

I only started using it about 2 days ago, so I'm not really worried about losing 64 bit...I am a little unnerved they did it without any prior warning however.

[T.A.P.O.R.]

thanks! it works! (one more Q please- how do i combine it with other stuff like open GL command? a comma or a simple space?)

I don't know for sure (haven't done multiples in many years), but I think it's a space between each command.

eg -popupwindow -popupwindow

[RocketPilot573]

Wait a minute! 64 bit is still on the store! Grab it before it's too late!

[EladDv]

but 64 is buggy
