Why not release 64bit client then?

I'm just contracted to provide a win32 client to get started. I expect a 64 bit client will be a priority for Invictus in the days ahead.
A 64bit client should provide some speed gains too as SHA512 is very 64bit intensive.

Mining

In the Settings menu, you can choose to mine 1, 2, or 3 processes.

You can also use the debug console to start mining.

setgenerate true 1
setgenerate true 2
setgenerate true 3

Note there is a 3 process maximum because of memory limitations on the win32 client. You can run a second or third instance of the program if you want to try running more processes.
