There are other zip2hashcat on github. May be one will work?
I haven't done any archive cracking, but I think I read somewhere that the hash includes the smallest file. So if the archive only contains one large file you can end up with a large hash. John the ripper has no problem with large hashes, but hashcat fails. If you only want to search through a small dictionary as you may know parts of the password, may be John is the way to go.
I'll add another bit of advice is to practice with a known file. Create a new zip with a known password and see if you can recover that, before working on the unknown one.
