WTF MAN! I wasted 6 hours trying to download this crap and to find out that only 64-bit users can use it?!?! WTFFFFF? What about 32-bit? I just lost complete hope.
I have Crysis 2 legit version but I can run the Crysis 2 Sandbox leaked version just fine (too bad I can't use the leaked version cause of bugs, glitch, ect.)
Is there a 32-bit version coming? or is this it?
Dam, I can't believe it. Even Crysis 1 sandbox run just fine in my computer. what a disgrace.

I know....seems to be one letdown after another. I feel for ya man. The is no reason for the editor to be 64bit especially when the game runs on a 32bit system. I can understand 2 versions 32/64 but this is maximum fail.

Perhaps better, though, than to build the software around an outdated 32-bit OS and leave out features. Kinda like building C2 around consoles didnt work out for the PC community so good... There IS a reason: more robust memory management. I feel your pain though, for reals.
Theres alot of benefit to upgrading your OS, but you do have to start from scratch. Both versions (32 and 64) are included in every release of win7 I'm aware of (except for some pre-installed, and then they'll send you a disk).
Upgrade! It'll be an adventure! (heheh) We need you in the Sandbox!

thanks man, my rage went down a little. But there is only a small spark of hope left. There are 3 possible ways to use the maps and editor:
1. Crytek Release a 32-bit version (2% chance happening)
2. Crymod release some good mod/maps
3. Release a Modded/Hacked version of this sandbox to run in 32-bit

If none of these are happening, I'm uninstalling Crysis 2. I regret my purchase.
there is no reason for this app to run in 64 bit.

ATM I'm going to try using the leaked version to see if I can do any editing (not likely though).

Crysis 1 was 2007 and 64bit is more common place now. In the end it's their tools and 64bit bring great benefits in this area.

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaad Faaaaaaaaaace . It's like all hope is lost

I read everything before I download anything.. Thats your bad for not reading up on that..

Get with the times!!! Upgrade your OS already!!

Why don't you try upgrading your **** OS?

easier said than done. Plus don't have the time and money for it right now.

Why don't you try upgrading your **** OS?
Agreed. What are you doing still using a 32 bit OS and trying to run Crysis?

Windows should come with a 32 bit and 64 bit version when purchased. It shouldn't cost you a thing.

Time, Money, Backing up files. It isn't the time to be asking these questions. I do appreciate your concern for me though.
The real question is will crytek make a 32-bit version or will modders hack it and release a compatible version?

Hacking the binary would make that illegal to use, so I'm pretty sure the license would say that.

Don't you think hackers already know that? anyways I don't want to resort by getting a hacked version just because I can't run it in 64-bit. That's the last thing I want to do but If I have to, I will. I really love using the editor and I love making cool maps.

i mentioned in another which no one noticed
if you insist to run it on 32bit windows, to avoid crash, you need to physically own more than 6g ram, then you need to turn PAE on and unlock 4g limitatation using tools such as ready4g, and then unlock 32bit process mem limit by using tool called AWE. Then your system will behave just like x64.

Dx11 & hi-res is mem hungry 2g limit on 32bit sys will definitely crash the game

ah thanks for the info! Well the only thing I request from you is a video tutorial. If you can't, I'll just look it up myself. Maybe I'll try to use this technique when I obtain my 6 GB of ram cause currently I only have 3. I hope this works. Unlike you, many just post spam insulting unhelping comments. Thanks for you help, I appreciate it.

To the OP - thanks for publicly admitting to breaking the law. Also - 32 bit is dead. Who actually uses less than 3 gigs of ram and then rages when a resource heavy application gets released? ****...that's who. Had you been around you would have been biching about all the software going to 16bits when you know that it could run on your 8bit machine. Grow up and install a 64bit OS. Since you clearly have no issues with breaking the law and pirating software - why don't you drag your stupid ass back to whatever hole you fished the beta out of and get a 64 bit OS. Or just shut the **** up you child.

^^ Why waste coming to this forum and talking like this, are you proud insulting users like me, is that like your purpose?
Make yourself useful and help me run this sandbox like this other guy above you. Please stay on topic here. I hate to enforce troll flame wars.

ps. I'm not enforcing hacking here, all I'm saying is the truth. there will be modders/hackers playing around with the editor.

My copy of windows gave me a 32 bit and 64bit cd though...

know you what, I give up. I'll let this topic just roll, won't even bother looking at useless posts, only helping ones. I'll just let things "roll" for now, see what happens to the editor and crymod. Cause If I keep posting help topics, all we'll get is spammers and trolls. (off-topic -->)I'll just stick to playing my Wii and Mario games for now. PC gaming has its pro's and con's. *sigh* what happened crysis 2? It was soo much easier in Crysis 1. everything went smoothly, no, what is happening to the gaming industry, we all have crappy games now for all systems. same run and gun, same rpg styles, same everything.

I totally told you how to run the editor. Install a 64bit OS and quit crying. I also told you where to get a 64bit OS from since your a software pirate and you steal programs. If your machine can't handle running a 64bit OS then what makes you think it could run Sandbox? You have a solution. Take it or leave it. The main reason I'm going off on the halfwits, such as yourself, is because all the biching and moaning has gotten old. First everyone biched about no DX11 or 64bit native support and the lack of the editor. Now everyone with **** hardware is crying because the dx11 patch and the editor both require...dun dun dun...a 64bit OS. Grow the **** up already. There was a **** when this game was release and it ran on peoples hardware and now that it actually can push a beastly system the bich fest continues. Maybe you need some tampons or a handi wipe to dig the sand out of your uagina?

@CryADAM - why is this jerk still posting? he has admitted several times to pirating crysis 2. You have a banhammer...use it.

since the x64 version is always shipped with 32bit, if you can reinstall x64 or upgrade to x64, it can save you a lot of time from searching uncertain solutions such as my solution mentioned above is a very common solution for app using large address aware flag, however i haven't yet tested it and it should work.
If your windows copy is legally licensed, your cd key also can be used to activate x64 version, you can download a image from everywhere if you happened not to own one.
I will try to log all details of this solution and do some tests tonight, of course asia time, in case some guys are really afraid of x64.
whatever you choose either x64 or hacking 32bit windows , you should own more than 6g ram to run the game. since i can't guarantee this hacking will work, i suggest get you ram purchase after this hacking is confirmed.

and deceiving the game&editor to let it believe it running on x64 is a missing point, if the they use hardcoded check other then registry check, it needs hardcoded hack... which is not likely to happen.

Why do you people even run 32 bit operating systems today? If you plug in 16GB of RAM in Windows 7 it will use about 12 gigs off the bat for the cache and another 3 gigs for active programs.

I move to x64 since vista, but there are still many people out there are afraid of x64, like compatibility or something. and there are rumours about x64's painful usability.

some people even would like to hack the system to support more than 4g memory rather than installing x64. so you see tools such as readyfor4g are still really popular.
