Darkman on SpectaculatorI'm using version 5.2 of Spectaculator but am unable to get Darkman to load. I've tried it on Spin and it loads fine. Anyone else have this problem?
It could easily just be a bad dump. Doesn't take much for the data to be wrong and the checksum (if you can call it that) to be correct.
The re-release looks, at a glance, identical apart from using different filenames.
