Pvpgn question

Hello, I can't like change to a newer pvpgn from pvpgn-1.8.5 without getting errors? I tried download the next generation of pvpgn, from here https://github.com/pvpgn and also from the dropbox by haprywar.  I can get it up an running fine but it seems not to work well, with chars/accounts from pvpgn-1.8.5 and also the patch client does not seems to work either, i get "unhandled exception" on d2. Is the files not the same? Or is it because I turning off lua(removing the folder)? (cus this seems not to work still for me.).
