V71 not longer for XP?
Monkey Forums/Monkey Programming/V71 not longer for XP?

Is V71 not longer working on a XP system? The 'product update' page offers it only for Win7/8. Has somebody experiences with V71 on XP? |
| ||
Should work. |
| ||
"Should" is nice. Does anybody knows something about an official statement from Mark about monkey future on XP? Are there reasons why he removed XP from the platforms? |
| ||
I can only guess that he simply has no XP system anymore. Even Microsoft dropped support for it so why should Mark care about that? There is nothing special Windows 7/8 stuff in Monkey beside the Win 8 target. So yes, it WILL work with XP, no doubts. |

Care to explain the "not work". Is is TED what's not working, the compiler, ??? |
| ||
I for one, care *a lot* about XP. I'm developing a mobile game (under contract), and it has to have a working build for XP SP2. I don't know if TED runs on XP or not - but games compiled with MingW do work on XP afaik. Edit: Yes, games compiled with MingW do run on XP SP2, I just tested it. |
| ||
by the definition of the topic it shouldnt work on linux but does quite nicely |
| ||
I don't know if TED runs on XP or not If QT5 works on XP then Ted should as well. If not then just recompile Ted in QTCreator. |
| ||
to clarify: I do not have any problem with my V71 on XP. I only wanted to ask, if anybody knows, why the XP is not longer refered as platform... |
| ||
I'd say it's just a typo. ;) |
| ||
I think you've misread the page. Create Android, iOS, Windows Phone 8, Windows 8, Windows, Mac, Linux, Xbox 360, Windows Phone 7, Flash and HTML5 Apps Create Windows, Windows 8, Windows Phone 7 and 8 apps. Admittedly 'Windows' is a bit vague - it's meant to imply XP/Vista/7. Windows Requirements: Windows XP/Vista/7/8 The Monkey requirements - fully XP compatible! |
| ||
Windows, to give credit where credit is due, has always been super-backward compatible. |

Installed V72a, seems to have no problems with WinXP SP3. |
