Hi Benoit,What do you mean by "64 bits version"? Do you that mean that you could get your protocol to work on Pd Double, the version of Pd that uses 64-bit floating point numbers? If so that's probably the way to go-- and keep in mind that Pd Double can run on 32-bit architectures, so that isn't a problem.
in practice it might well be: if your CPU only has instructions for single precision math, then using double precision (while technically possible) might have dysmal performance, making a double-precision Pd unusable on these platforms. (we had a similar problem with 1st generation handheld devices, such as PDAs, that would only have fixed point arithmetics. in order to actually run Pd on those devices we needed PDa, a fixed-point fork of Pd)
