Seems from that page that;

Is the one you need. So one would start a shell, execute that batch file, and right after (in the same shell) execute the LuaRocks command.

Since version 3 LuaRocks change its detection iirc. So maybe you’d have to install LuaRocks first from that prompt, too make sure it detects that same compiler during its set up.

Alternatively you could try and build a 64bit Lua version
