Installed Lands; won't run. "DLL load failed:%1 is not a valid Win32 application." #51

I've been trying to run Lands for several days now, but I keep running into issues. I'm a newbie with Python (and coding in general), but I think I've installed it just fine. When I try to run it I get the following error:

C:\Users\User\Downloads\Lands\Lands-master>lands world -s 1 -n seed1

I followed the wiki's instructions for installing on Windows, and I made sure I had 64-bit versions of everything (e.g. Python 2.7.9, pip, etc.) Let me know if I'm missing any important info.

Nevermind; I just updated to the latest version and installed it, and I don't have this problem anymore - I have a different one :). I'll use the google group though to bring it up!

Sorry about the problem and thank you for your patience, as soon as I grab a windows machine I will try to figure out what is going on. We are working on a better windows experience for the future but for now let's fix your issues
