Entry Point Not Found

[Telarin]

When launching 0.6.3, I receive the following windows dialog box:

Factorio.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point GetTickCount64 could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll

Hello, is it 64 or 32 bit version, did you download it or upgrade it?
Windows I presume.

32-bit version, downloaded, Windows XP Pro SP3

I did some research of my own. Turns out the GetTickCount64 method does not exist in Windows XP. So I guess my question becomes, is this an unintentional oversight, or is Factorio officially dropping support for XP?

[kovarex]

Factorio is not dropping XP support, we just don't test on xp regularly, I will check it out, thank you for the info.

The problem is fixed in 0.6.4, I hope it to be the last bugfix release

For curious programmers, it is boost error ... https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/8070

Could you please try 0.6.4 (https://www.factorio.com/download/experimental), and tell me if it works for you?

Sorry for the delay in reply. Yes, I can confirm that 0.6.4 restored XP compatibility.
