I can't open my Wherigo-projects anymore

Several years ago I build 2 Wherigo-geocaches.

I had to change something in those caches.

So I downloaded the gwz-files from Wherigo.com.

I changed .gwz into .zip and unziped the files.

Unfortunately I can't open de lua files anymore in the Wherigo builder.

Only one of the two lua-files I can open in Urwigo.

 

Can someone help me to fix the files so I can use them in the Wherigo-builder and in Urwigo.

If someone wants to help me I can mail the gwz-files.

I´ve just tried to import a lua file in urwigo, without success. I think the best change you have is to rebuild the cartridge with the assets in the zip file.

Sorry.

[Oeps! I placed this topic on the wrong place. Can the modorator move it in 'Building Wherigo Cartridges' please?]

 

This is my situation:

 

I build the following Wherigo-caches:

http://coord.info/GC19TA6

http://coord.info/GC21V68

 

For both I used the official Wherigo builder.

The gwz-files I downloaded this week from Wherigo.com contains .lua-files. I can't open those in the official Wherigo builder anymore. I get this error:

 

Error Reading cartridge.

System.BadImageException: poging om een programma te laden met onjuiste indeling. (Uitzondering van HRESULT: 0x8007000B)

bij Groundspaek.Wherigo.ZonesEngine.ZonesEngineDll.InitializeEngine...

 

(BTW: this is not the whole text. I made a screenshot of it. When needed: I can mail the image.)

 

I also tried tot import the .lua in Urwigo:

It works good whit GC19TA6.

But it gives this error with GC21V68:

 

Error during cartridge import. line 2207, character 66: object 'zitemGunpowder' was not found.

Yeah, that "BadImageException" is the tell-tale for that issue. Groundspeak's builder was made during a time when almost all consumer computers were still 32-bit. Even my laptop at the time was 32-bit. As time went on, most computers came with 4GB of RAM or more, necessitating a 64-bit OS. Groundspeak's builder was never recompiled for a 64-bit environment, so the community had to tweak it.

 

On a side note, I'm getting a ton of new computer components today so I can play with the Oculus Rift when it comes out later this year. I've always done console gaming, so this will be my first gaming rig. This build has: i7-6700K CPU, 32GB RAM (2x16GB), GTX980 Ti 6GB graphics card, 1TB SSD, and an ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Extreme mobo. I went over the top with components, so I think this'll be fun. Too bad I didn't add a u.2 SSD.
