What you should focus on is not giving incorrect advice.
I haven't actually given incorrect advice, unless it's incorrect to say that he should have a 64-bit OS to utilise the remaining 4.5GB of his 8GB RAM. That absolutely will provide more than enough of a performance boost that should eliminate his issue of the game crashing after 10 minutes of game play.
Not to mention it will provide improved performance for things outside of the game too, so the benefit goes beyond just this game.

Oh, and maybe you should actually try giving advice. After all, you did say

Secondly, ever considered someone else might read our advice?
You're still failing to give any advice, instead focusing solely on me... I'm flattered you're apparently obsessed with me, but it's boring now.

We've both said our piece repeatedly, and taken up more than enough of the thread. Let's drop it now.

It doesn't matter where he downloaded the game or which one.
There was already a case with a password requirement, I even saw a screenshot in person. This bug came from a very early version of Timestamps, when the game required a password. It is treated by cleaning the local folder.
Thank you !! It worked
Not sure what the the problem actually was... but I think it is due to the extraction application which tries to extract every folder in the game_data folder. So, maybe changing the extraction tool or disabling the option to extract recursive.

My best guess.. not entirely sure about it.

So you still maintain that the reason it crashes is due to memory issues, and the proper solution is to re-install the OS?

No .. the problem is that the player had data in the local folder when he started the game at an early stage of development (~ 2 years ago)
Then the game required a password at the entrance.
Show the developers a picture - they might find out)

lol that's the parent control feature. Yes, if he set up the feature it requires a password. However, it easy to bypass it by deleting the config file.

If that is the case - which means the engine is really crappy - why even bother building a 32 bit version of the game? And besides, what in a game like this could justify a minimum of several gigs of RAM in order for it not to crash? As far as I can see, it's mostly showing some static images with a text overlay, and then an occasional video clip.
The game has had 32-bit as the only option for 2 years because we never needed to use 64-bit at all. There is nothing wrong with the game on 32-bit. It uses like 270mb-320mb of ram on average but if you skip fast it will use more ram temporarily. (holding shift). I compiled it at 64bit one time and since then also kept doing 64-bit versions

Because she doesn't... Similar to, yes, probably the same base model, but not exact.

Personally, Heather looks better. Although that may be down to being a red head.
Yeah her hair color, and skin taunt aswell breast size are different, not a big deal. But the face ist just the exact same.
