Running super fast and smooth on my Vista machine - one important fix for me is that Punkbuster games no longer kick you with a "program/driver" error.
TallEmu fixed the Punkbuster incompatibility which is good news for any gamers out there.

True memory and Resource use should be heaps lower. There was a long thread about it somewhere :)

I'm not seeing any delays on startup - and the tests so far report lovely performance.

[Thug21]

Yey! The switch user bug is fixed!

The GUI is pretty much the same like shown at OA Webhelp for version 3.

This is after about 3 hours running and mainly playing UT3 online, but it's nearly the same after startup.

Cold boot startup time till everything is loaded and till Explorer window opens up is 55 seconds on my PC with XP SP3, Avira Premium and OA.

This is "overnight" picture. 3.5 is actually light on resources (I run Vista, OA AV+)

[rogervernon]

Running very light here. No start-up lag, learning of banking mode is a dream.
Lovely job!
XP Home, SP3

I am waiting for Online Armor Free 3.5 stable.

Is version 3.5 x64 compatible?

No - but we're working on it in background.

Ah... according to tallemu nobody using 64bits windows... actually nobody uses vista either, when they released working on vista build then suddenly all users starts to using vista...;)

We began work on Vista when it made commercial sense for us to do so, given the resources at our disposal.

From Feb 28th to March 30 2009, 75% of the visitors to our website are still using Windows XP. 20% of the visitors are on Vista - some proportion of them will be on 64bit. It's increasing , of course, which is why we now start to pay more attention on 64 bit and Windows 7.

so 64bits build will wait for more percent (according to your "referent" site)?
Win7? how much percent of your visitors uses beta build of that OS?

per my posts above...

Good, I hope they will reach magical border of 25% in some point in time... or less commercial sensed users will never have wait "longer" (till reach 25%) their beloved FW on their machines?

Are you deliberately misquoting me? I've said twice now in the past 20 minutes that we're already looking at x64.

sorry, I edited my earlier post

[MikeNash]

Ok, just so it's clear: We are currently investigating x64. Once 3.5 is released, this will have a lot of focus for us.

I think this is not just a "whim", but rather available resources. If resources were unlimited there would definitely be support for any thinkable platform.

And our mac version would look VERY pretty :)

[BJStone]

Thanks for looking into the 64bit version Mike.:thumb:

[JohnnyDollar]

I appreciate the response Mike. I like OA, I hope you can have it x64 ready in the near future. Better sooner than later :)

Crossing fingers for Gameguard compatibility...

Hi Plati:

Yes, agreed, I'm waiting for OA paid 3.5.x formal release.

For now, I'm done with testing OA beta's or their 3.5 release candidates.

Maybe later, when I have the $, space and patience ;) to do this type work. ;D

[IceCube1010]

Smooth as butter over here, running on WinXP pro (sp3) pc. I have Avast and SBIE running along with it without any hiccups. My next test is at home with the same setup only on Vista Home.

-{ Quote: "Crossing fingers for Gameguard compatibility..." }-

That's been solved :)

[IceCube1010]

This has been by far the best version of OA free 3.5 that I have ever used. I use to have some slow downs and some other minor problems but they have all been fixed in this version. Great work OA.

Yep great job guys. Love the new release :)
