I would like to know way you released a win64 version of povray and not one
for Linux, the win64 is in a very beta stage and not work with many
graphics cards, (My card for example.) and I never will use windows just
for  work with povray.
but the linux 64 is a great system, very fast, and a final release .

well.

It is I think.

Please, release one linux 64 bit version of povray for work with AMD Athlon
64.

tkz

The unix/linux source package you can download from 
http://www.povray.org/download/ compiles on AMD64 systems without 
problems (just like on all other 64bit systems we could test on).

Correct me if i'm wrong, but just because it compiles on the AMD64 
doesn't make it a 64bit version, does it?

No, but the most common compiler on Linux (gcc) produces 64bit code by 
default on 64bit systems (and i assume most other compilers do the 
same).  Building the POV-Ray source package on a AMD64 without 
explicitly specifying the -m32 option will result in a 64bit binary.

  And what makes it a 64-bit version?

  If povray compiles as a 64-bit binary using gcc in linux if the target
platform is 64-bit, then what else is needed?

I try to compiile but I get error in the last pacage, when I tru render a

many others objects work norrmal, but this onne not

That I can do to resolve this ?

What does this have to do with compiling POV-Ray?  This obviously is an 
error in your scene file.

BTW a spell checker would be strongly advisable for you.
