Issues fixed

Crash on launch

On some 64-bit systems the game will not launch, showing a brief black window possibly with a cryptic error 0xc000007b.
This will instruct the game to run in 32-bit mode even on a 64-bit platform, which should work just the same but bypasses the issue with incompatible 64-bit system libraries.
