    64 bit FFR

    As we all know Microsoft is going to release Windows Vista (the name is no longer Longhorn). They have also released Windows XP 64 bit edition. Macintosh has released their own version of 64 bit and so has Linux. AMD Anthlon is abandoning their 32bit processors and Intel is working on a new processor for 64bit systems.
    So we have to ask ourselves one question. . . When is FFR staff going to make a 64 bit version? Because people will abandon 32bit and move to 64bit, and we know this big move will happen when Vista is released. Some of these people would be FFR fans. Even though the new systems will carry programs that will allow you to use 32bit programs, they will try to abandon those programs. So I am saying.

    I don't want to see this great game be left in the dust.

      We can't make a 32bit vs 64bit version, but Macromedia to make a flash plugin for 64bit, which I'm sure they already have out.

            I get the message afrobean. Makes no sence why it is rated T. Prehaps mild language. But DDR is rated E and has mild language.

              Actually, it's rated Teen because of the secret "FFR Fight" minigame. It's incredibly violent.

                Exactly, thats why theres that 'secret code' box in FFR. You use it to get to the minigame.

                    It's an old feature used for a contest a while back, has no purpose anymore.

                      If it has no purpose, then we should advocate to remove it for a smaller load time...

                      unless your planning on 1. having contests in the future, 2. it actually does do something cool

                      [ontopic]

                      Macromedia controls the flash standards for the processor. and besides, FFR doesnt ever need to use 64 bits of memory register... it doesnt even use 50% of your processor anyways.. It's just overkill.

                        Removing the box would result in a .00000000000000000000000000000000001 second faster load time, why not leave it in the game for us to possibly use it in the future.

                              FFR is fine the way it is in speed and loading times. Unless there is something new that we may discover that will cause everyone to lag and stuff, not much will change for a faster speed.
