I'm not yet sure what's causing this, but I hope to try a new Windows build soon, and perhaps I'll gain some better understanding...

I very much doubt that it has anything to do with the scripting.

Regarding the variable names, the changes are described in recent comments in issue #27. So it ought to be possible to update scripts appropriately; or if you remove your "scripts" folder, a new one with updated sample scripts should be created.
