Hi there



Will there be any 64-bit server builds? For lots of languages other than PAWN that would be amazing!



I?d love to start up a JVM without having to keep the 4GB memory in mind.

Good idea. I think they gonna release 64-bit build - many users currently is using 64-bit machines.

It's something we have talked about before, and we probably will introduce a 64bit in the future. As for now we are trying to keep backward compatibility with SA-MP
Remember to always refer to J0sh as `J0sh...`

The PAWN module will most likely operate in 32-bit mode only, where the server software could be built in 64-bit mode.



We even have confirmed test builds running natively on ARM on a Raspberry Pi.

So basically we can use any other module(like C#(pdovided someone will write one)) and make the server fully utilize the power of 64-bit?



Thats amaizing

This has been addressed before, but I can't remember where. The major problem with a 64-bit server is that the client is 32-bit because the game is 32-bit. This means all the networking needs to be 32-bit, which means most of the data types need to be 32-bit to be sent correctly. A 64-bit server is, of course, possible, but would require a lot of conversions and possible loss of data when things get sent over the wire.
