Ave! I just downloaded the newest version of DoomRL (0.9.9.5) and for my surprise, I cannot even start the game. Running either doomrl.bat or doomrl.exe leads to an error which only flashes on screen. For our luck this generates error log which tells us this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am running 32-bit Windows XP SP3. What gives?
