Is it 32 bit, IsaacG?

[wafflesoflife]

What does terravita even mean?

[CosmicHitman]

The words themselves are Latin: terra (earth/Earth) and vitae (life). I'm guessing their name is meant to be a reference to the fact that they are an environmental group trying to protect Earth from dying. I don't know much Latin though, so I don't know if that is the grammatically correct form or order for the words though. Not that it really matters...

Is it 32 bit, IsaacG?

IIRC all versions of LCS are 32 bit.
There was an attempt a few years ago to port it to 64 bit, but it ended in failure.

[pikachu17]

Then why did my computer say it couldn't use the .exe, because it wasn't a valid 32-bit Windows program, a few months or so back?
Also what does IIRC mean?

I do not know if I got the adjective declension correct either, but the order is correct (noun followed by adjective). If somebody knows this I would happily update it.

If I recall correctly, IIRC means 'If I recall correctly.'

I would need more information to go on.  What version of windows you use, and especially whether you use windows update, are key points.

Someone on another, unrelated site gave this answer:

The message ".exe is not a valid win32 application" indicates that the EXE file did not download completely. When Windows then tries to run what appears to be an executable file, it finds that it is not a valid Windows 32-bit application file due to the incomplete download.

[pikachu17]

My computer is a Windows XP, and I think it downloaded correctly, both times.

If you could post the exact error message, that should help.

[pikachu17]

The error says [Filepath]\crimesquad.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
Strangely, the old version, before IsaacG made his version, seems to work. Although, I am not absolutely sure the old thing is before IsaacG.

[MCreeper]

There can be other thing - if you try to launch win 7 app on win xp, and developer wasn't enough of a jerk to put in some fancy "no game for you" message, you will get the very same "not a valid win32 application" message.

I've only just started to try this latest windows version but see a couple small issues already. The Lobby screen under the liberal agenda doesn't display properly for me:



Some blurb about "Movie 0" came up before my character creation was finished, during the questions phase. And the Movie subscreen itself under the agenda doesn't seem to load. I press M and nothing happens. I'll play with this more and see if any more serious issues pop up. I should note this is under Windows 10, in case that has an effect.

Edit: More movies happened, the blurbs are kind of cut off in places and hard to read... also, I got a screen at the end of the month about the monthly Liberal Guardian, but I haven't set one up yet... I do have one lone recruit writing to regular newspapers, could that have triggered it?

[SlatersQuest]

Lobbies are presently buggy - I am trying to work out what the problem with them is.

The choices you make during character creation do trigger movies - that is not a bug. I thought I remembered testing the movie screen, but I will check again.

Right now, there is a blurb at the end of each month about the Liberal Guardian electronic newsletter. If that is what you are referring to, this is not a bug either. If it is not, can you post a screenshot?

[Singularity125]

Ah, sorry, that game ended in fairly short order once I got in a car chase and I haven't started another one yet.

As for the movie screen, once a movie was actually produced and actors were named, then it seemed to come up fine. It was early on before a movie went to production that the button would not do anything. I don't think it's a bug then, but it would be nice to have a screen or message saying no actors are generated yet.

That blurb is what I was referring to, yes, but should it be coming up if I don't have anyone writing for the guardian? I hadn't even yet gotten a printing press. I suppose it does no harm either way but it was confusing.
