About L64 files

The .L64 file extension has two completely different uses, both of which cause extreme frustration for users. Most commonly, it is a Farming Simulator game script developed by GIANTS Software. These files contain compiled 64-bit Lua scripts used to power game mods for Farming Simulator 22 and other versions. Because the code is compiled binary data, you cannot open or edit it in standard text editors like Notepad. The second use is a security camera video file exported from Lorex CCTV and DVR systems. This is a highly proprietary, raw video stream container designed for surveillance backups.

Users desperately need to convert these files. Lorex .L64 videos cannot be played natively in web browsers, Windows Media Player, or Apple QuickTime. You must convert them to MP4 or AVI for police evidence sharing or universal playback. Meanwhile, mod developers need to reverse-engineer the Farming Simulator .L64 scripts back into human-readable LUA text files to modify the game mechanics.

These formats are notoriously difficult to convert. Standard online converters fail because Lorex uses proprietary CCTV codecs that lack standard multimedia headers, and GIANTS Software compiles their scripts specifically for their game engine. Often, only the original Lorex L64 Viewer or a dedicated Lua decompiler can properly read or export the data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your L64 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted DMA, US and MFI files.
