32 bit or 64 bit-pre purchase query
« on: September 18, 2018, 10:10:17 pm »
I am running the demo and am very interested in purchasing. I have win7 home premium 64 bit
and would like to know if GSX is a 64 bit program or 32 bit (P3D version).
It seems to have installed into the 32 bit program files folder.
Thanks
Jay

If  you would  have  clicked  the info  in the product  you  would  have  found  your  answer

GSX Level 2 is compatible with FSX+SP2 minimum, or FSX+Acceleration Pack or FSX:Steam Edition, or any version of Lockheed Martin Prepar3D.
Prepar3D 4 is fully supported.
Windows 10 or Windows 7/8, 32 and 64 bit editions are supported.

GSX is both a 32 bit and a 64 bit program, at least the parts of it that interface with the simulator at the lowest level.

This means, you can use it today on FSX, and it will work as a 32 bit program, but if you will eventually switch to a 64 bit simulator (P3D4, which is what we suggest to use), the program will still work with it, since it also compatible with 64 bit.
