Hi folks just to let you know that Planet Mod does not work on 64bit windows even with the multiinstalller installed i have tested and tried this. I gues who ever created the mod forgot to add 64bit version of windows

I believe it was created long before Windows 7 came out, so that's not surprising.

it works perfectly fine for me on 64 bit. it must be a problem on your computer.

all multi installers work on 64 bit. are you using old version or multi installer?

Yeh your right the mod only works on 32bit so dont understand why its not working with 64bit and i dont understand how tc has managed to get it working iv tried a dozen times and i get the same error message could it be that im using a copied disk of windows and not the original? because when my old man installed windows it was a copy version of windows

Why is the old one even online? I think it should be disabled so people can't download it. That would prevent confusion and there really isn't much need for the old one.

I agree with you cleverwise it should be taken off and be replaced with the newer planet mod i hope TC Agrees too

only a hand full of the original mods were converted to multi-installer mods and some of options (like "difficulty" option in building mod) Joker put on his mods can not be duplicated in multi installer. so both version are available.

Well that's unfortunate as the old version doesn't work well on many systems including many old systems. Oh well it is what it is.
