Install the 32-bit version as described in the [[Installing_the_toolset#Lightmapper\|lightmapper section of the installation instructions]]. If you don't have Python installed you'll receive a standard Windows error message indicating that "EclipseRay.exe has stopped working."		*Note: There appears to be a bug with the 64-bit version of ActiveState Python 2.5 for Windows that prevents the lightmapper from functioning.
