Why no 64bit SFML2 on Windows?
« on: November 15, 2012, 11:37:56 pm »
I might be blind, but I don't see the 64bit version of SFML 2 available for download. I tried generating project files for 64bit Visual Studio 2008 but Cmake says that the project doesn't support that. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks,
Kreed

There's no 64-bits package for Windows. Remember that it's just a RC, not the final release.

We could help if you gave a more precise description of the problem.

These nightly builds may be of help: http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=9513.0;topicseen
Keep in mind though that I only support Visual Studio 2010 and 2012, but unless you own a paid version of Visual Studio 2008, I don't see a reason not to upgrade to at least 2010. ;)
