these are the arguments that im passing in my program

filename = str(sys.argv[1]) 
limit_scenarios = int(sys.argv[2]) 
limit_ages = int(sys.argv[3]) 
limit_hours = int(sys.argv[4]) 
 

but once i run it in dos promt
C:\>python m6_setup_me.py "2001summer.tb1" 10 25 3

this is the error message that i get

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "m6_setup_me.py", line 45, in <module>
limit_scenarios = int(sys.argv[1])

It shuld work fine. As far as i can see you have misplaced some idexes.
limit_scenarios = int(sys.argv[1]) # sys.argv[2]!

My test:

smygis@Bob:~/src$ cat test.py 
#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding: UTF-8
 
import sys
 
for i in ((c, sys.argv[c]) for c in xrange(len(sys.argv))):
        print "Arg: %d = %s" % i
 
 
smygis@Bob:~/src$ ./test.py hello 12 3 "hello again"
Arg: 0 = ./test.py
Arg: 1 = hello
Arg: 2 = 12
Arg: 3 = 3
Arg: 4 = hello again
