??? I opened a template in 2.61 because it doesnt work in 2.72 or 3.0. I saved it in 2.61, opened it in 2.72 and it tells me the rooms need to be recompiled and there is a scripting error. how can i get it to load in 2.72 correctly?
Either you update the whole code to object-based script or you just set 'Enforce object-based scripting'
and 'Enforce new-style strings' to false (General Settings).
Then you should be able to recompile the rooms. If not, show us what error you get and the wrong code.

when i do that and test the game it tells me ".activeinv is not a public member of character"
search the manual for activeinv. You will see that it's obsolete and has been replaced by .ActiveInventory.
So replace activeinv with ActiveInventory and do that with all similar errors you probably get.
If you're new to AGS, please don't start out by trying to upgrade a template from 2.61 ... you'll only make things ridiculously confusing for yourself.
Instead, why not start off with one of the templates included with the latest version of AGS and go from there?

the thing is i dont like the sierra or the verbcoin interfaces, i like the verb table and inventory
What is so pressing of the latest versions that you can not use an older version of AGS? I know several people that refuse to upgrade because of compatibility issues.
