How to open a netlogo model from the community?

Question

I am getting "unable to open model with current format" when trying to run two netlogo models from community. The models are:

• http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/models/community/Reinforcement%20Learning%20Wargame

and

• http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netels/models/community/Reinforcement%20Learning%20Maze

I think it is happening because I am trying to run the models in netlogo 6.1.0 while they were written in an older version, but I also don't know how to find out in which version they were written.

How can I run these community models?

This utility may prove useful.

1. Install Python 3.12. (Accept installation of the py launcher.)
2. Download netlogo4to6.py to wherever you want to be using it (e.g., a temp folder).
3. From your preferred shell (e.g., PowerShell), enter py -3.12 netlogo4to6.py mypath where mypath is the path to the file you wish to convert.
