As you guys probably noticed, I updated the Windows 64-bit version of QB64 to be all up to date and caught up with all the development changes in the language, as of today. (12-22-2018)
I also swapped out the old compiler we were using from the stone ages, and replaced it with the newest version mingw offers. (Currently 8.1 if I remember correctly.)
While doing the swapping out the 64-bit compiler and such to the latest version, I also took time to swap out the 32-bit version to the latest, greatest mingw version.
If you guys want a copy of QB64 packaged with the 8.10 mingw compiler, you can grab a working version from: (DOWNLOAD TEMPORARILY DISABLED WHILE DEBUGGING)
NOTE: Nothing in QB64 itself has changed, except a little tweaking to resolve a few naming conflicts with the newest compiler. All this is, is a swap of the engine under the hood, so it compiles with the newest c-compiler, instead of a version several years old. Don't expect any new flashes or whistles; it'll look and run just like you're used to, without any noticeable differences.

Sorry Steve, it's worse than x64, even the IDE is broken here. All I get when running qb64.exe is a black window saying "UNEXPECTED INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR! - Caused by (or after) LINE 0:", even if running it as admin, no change...

Now, that is bad! No idea what the heck's going on there, as it's working more or less as it should for me (with the exception of LINE, and I'm sorting it out now.)
