Note:

We've been monitoring reports of excessive crashing over the last couple releases, and we're working actively to reduce crashing and improve the gameplay experience. One major step towards eliminating memory-related crashes will be for us to upgrade Creativerse to a 64-bit version.

For the huge majority of our players, this will be a seamless transition, and you won't have to do anything but enjoy the improved performance. However, a very small subset of our players are currently running 32-bit versions Windows, which will cease to be supported when Creativerse becomes 64-bit. If you're not sure whether you're on a 32 or 64-bit OS, we've compiled some informative links in this thread.

We're announcing this change now so everyone has plenty of time to make sure they're 64-bit compatible. We'll absolutely post again with a more definite timeframe as we get closer to making the switch to 64-bit.
