That dll is only used by Tracker to read the save game file, so it really shouldn't affect the overall memory issues.

Yes, I'm saying I doubt that dll is restricting memory. Michael provided a 64-bit dll years ago that enables Tracker to run with 64-bit Java. The Tracker guys fully support it. What update to the dll are looking for Michael to make?ORIGINAL: BillBrown

But the 64 bit Java can access much more memory than the 32 bit version.
It was released with the Betas, Not sure if it also got rolled up into the most recent full release. I covered it in an earlier post for Geoff, and Ii'm sure it's in the Tracker instructions on the website. Certainly in the Tracker thread too. Just look in the Beta and you see a second dll there.ORIGINAL: BillBrown
Where do I find this 64-bit DLL?
It is the one we all use to run 64-bit Java with tracker...???ORIGINAL: BillBrown
If you are talking about the pwsdll7.dll, that is not a 64-bit dll.
michaelm make that for tracker when he increased the total number of pilots slots to 70,000 ( that is what the 7 is for )
I will look tonight to see if there is a newer one that is a 64-bit one.
The oracle install won't let me put both in the same Java folder. I guess I could create a folder called "Java 32" and put it there. Instead I'm going to leave the Java 64 bit in the x86 Java folder and let the 32 install where it wants to go, in the regular Program Files folder. Then I will put the .exe from that in the Tracker folder.ORIGINAL: Korvar
Yeah, taking a chicken and putting 'Swan' on its name-tag doesn't quite work [:D]
To be sure, just (re)install both the 32 and 64 bit versions of Java using the links I provided, then copy the Java.exe from the Program Files(x86) Java folder.
