EJAX Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 In your VX folder. If not there, then do a google search for 4gb patch. It's a generic file utility. Link to comment
hfg2 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 There are two methods to patch for 4GB. Not sure what is the difference to make them portable or not, but when you start the TK17_OptionsMan.exe you get the option to produce both files. Link to comment

Note: You're still limited to just 4GB of usable memory. 32bit apps reserve 2GB for the OS and 2GB for usable memory. Windows can run in as little as 512MB of memory, so the patch merely frees up the extra ram. Link to comment
EJAX Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 It doesn't matter if your game is portable or not, it just patches the main exe so it can access more memory. Doesn't do anything else. P.S. There's no reason to patch the launcher, as I've heard many suggest in the past. All IT does is run a few preliminary checks, updates the registry and launches the exe. Nothing it needs a ton of memory for. Link to comment
