You shouldn't need to edit it, it should work as-is.

It is very strange why you need this increment, while no one else
does.

The size in the 64-bit build doesn't need to be a double of the size
for the 32-bit build, since not every Lisp object is exactly twice
large in the 64-bit build.  These numbers were found by
trial-and-error.

Like Noam said: make sure the DLL is where Emacs looks for it.
