Is there a 64 bit version of The powder toy 86.0?

Schneumer

Well, there is a 64 bit version of TPT in general by wolfy. (and Jacob1?)

x86 usually means non-x86_64, i.e exactly the opposite of 64-bit.
Why would you need a 64-bit version anyway? If you're on linux, then it's easier to compile one yourself. If on windows, there's WOW64

I think that he meant version 86.0 of TPT, not x86.

The title is: "x86 version? (64 bit?)".

Asking the same question as mniip:
"Why would you need a 64-bit version anyway?

for less chance of lag.

well, 64-bit version are much faster in frames since more "teamwork" however cannot be played in 32-bit.

No, it wouldn't.

[16:49:34] <Xetalim> Triclops256, quick, why does TPT 64 bit improve performance not so much
[16:50:03] <Triclops256> Xetalim: Because 64bit instructions are actually less performant on average than 32

If you really want it, MiningMarsh hosts a 64bit linux build in this thread: https://powdertoy.co.uk/Discussions/Thread/View.html?Thread=17287
