Wildstar 64bit

I just found out that you can run a 64bit version of wildstar and that the "default" launcher is 32bit. Will ISboxer have any issues if i switch to the 64bit?

this video clued me in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdWhp7O ... N88t1BYxZ1

Re: Wildstar 64bit

Inner Space is fully 64-bit compatible as of 2-3 weeks ago and there should be no issues. If there are, well... obviously report them. :)

Re: Wildstar 64bit

The launcher is 32-bit, the game is 64-bit. I don't believe there is a way to get a 64-bit launcher or 32-bit game client.

There are two launchers.. if you watch that video he shows how to get the 64bit launcher.. i now have both on my desktop..BUT if what your saying is true.. the launcher part doesn't matter right? Since the game is 64bit only? from what he says in the video, it made it sound like there are two game clients.. one 32 and one 64.

edit: Actually , i just watched the video again and he never says "launcher".. but points to the two launchers that im guessing are tied to the two clients...and refers to them both as clients. ie 32 and 64bit

Anyway.. 64 is good right? ( im running Windows7 64bit ) But from playing last weekend.. i went to a full group and had a lot of lock ups.. had everything turned to lowest in game settings. If i dropped one account.. i ran between 25-40 FPS with no issues. So im guessing i need an upgrade.. I want to be able to play 5 accounts at 60/20 .. I know my CPU is part of the bottleneck based on watching it while i played and it often hit 95-100% with 5 on some cores. When i drop one, it would peak at 85%. Im also using a 580 GTX 3gb.. so Im sure i need to upgrade that as well.

64-bit is fine and supported by Inner Space and ISBoxer, yes

You can trick WildStar into running a 32bit client on a 64bit machine by right clicking the launcher and setting it to XP compatibility mode. The launcher will then download a separate client the next time you use it (and delete the 64bit version).

Doesn't seem to be much of a need to do this as ISBoxer works fine with the 64bit version.

From what i was reading.. it runs the 32bit by default. You have to manually get it to use 64bit.
