Where do you see that addition? When I check my WOFF.exe, it is just written WOFF.exe with nothing behind.

When I open task manager CTRL/ALT/DEL it shows that.I wonder if I am running it at 32 bit for some reason.

Can't help - I am running Win 7 (32bit) anyway.

Wolfstriked,

It is probably that seeing as CFS3 (which WOFF is a total mod for), was released in 2002 when all the windows operating systems in mainstream use were 32 bit.

Mine also shows as a 32bit process on a windows 7 64-bit operating system.

Personally if WOFF runs I would not worry about it.

The game is indeed 32 bit, but is configured to take advantage of up to 4 GB of RAM (normally 32 bit apps are limited to 2 GB of RAM). However, this feature only works to the full extent if you are running 64 bit version of Windows.
That's why devs strongly recommend 64 bit Windows even though the game is formally 32 bit.

BTW, to put it simple WOFF.exe is responsible for main screen, menus, settings, etc, while the "flying" part of the game is CFS3.exe. It is still 32 bit of course.
