Marathon 1, likely others too: Alien Weapon causes screen to freeze with Enhanced HUD loaded. #42

Major showstopper: Starting with the level "Pfhor Your Eyes Only..." equipping the Alien Weapon at any time will cause the screen to freeze unless you switch away from it. This behavior can be observed only if the Enhanced fullscreen HUD is loaded; this doesn't happen on the Default HUD. Might be having to do with how the Enhanced HUD animates its distortion effects from tying to identify this unknown technology.

Supplemental: I seem to have sorted out the issue...for now: It has to do with the animated, garbled text that's supposed to be there. Opening the .LUA script and setting "alienWeaponShowText" to false solved the issue.
