BYOND Version:
3.5

Operating System:
Windows Vista

Detailed Problem Description:
I have installed Byond, and it loads up normally, but for some reason it immediatly crashes! Windows searches for a reason for the problem and... It doesnt find any problem!


The problem occures Every time.
It obviously won't work in a publicly unreleased operating system in a beta state.

Byond does not clam Windows Vista support as it is beta software. As such byond is not tested on it yet.

When Vista is released, then byond will support it.

Providing, of course, one of the staff working on BYOND actually owns a copy of Vista.

I still don't see why BYOND releases a patch for it though.
Some people here, only use VISTA BETA, and really want to play BYOND.
In response to Flame Sage
They don't have the OS to test it on. How can they program for an OS they don't have?
In response to Flame Sage
Downloading a beta operating system is just asking for trouble, quit whining. There was another topic like this before, too.

I have vista beta 1 and 2 and byond works fine even with out changing byonds compatibility mode to xp why don't you try doing that
In response to Justin Knight
So because i've got Vista Beta, means I automattically stole it, and pirated it? You have a computer, did you steal that? Did you steal all the software? Did you steal the milk thats in your fridge? Don't acuse people of wrong doing, Unless you know that the've done something wrong.
In response to Strawgate
Who said you pirated it? I think Justin just ment that since you got a Beta, you shouldn't be supprised if it doesn't work with everything. That's really the main purpose of betas, to beta-test. They aren't so noobs can run arround shouting "LOLZ I GOT VISTA B4 U11." With great power, comes great responsibility. I'd think the same goes for moderate power.

If anyone, blame Microsoft for not supporting older applications.

Byond works fine on beta 1 and beta 2 if your no so freaking noob at an OS you could use it properley right click byond.exe in the byond bin and change the compatibility noob.

Flaming not good.

In response to A.T.H.K
Well, I’m sorry if I forgot about that. My past experiences have taught me that if it says compatible with windows whatever, it’s not compatible. Also, it is inappropriate to flame someone just because there not as knowledgeable in a certain subject as you.

While frustration over lack of understanding could certainly be a possibility, please attempt to keep that frustration to yourself instead of breaking the rules of these forums by flaming another BYOND user.

Thank you, and have a nice day =)

okay, i got Vista on my computer, and Byond won't work with it, says it isn't compatible. I was just wondering if the next version of Byond may be compatible with it? Thanks

Read the thread. And every other one concerning Vista and BYOND.
