Archbishop Lazarus cheats

I was feeling nostalgic so I decided to do a play-through of D1 for the first time in years. Got to the end of the game, opened the red portal to face Lazarus and stepped through... only for the game to freeze. Thinking maybe the cd had somehow misaligned, I opened the drive to check and discovered this treachery:

Pretty much the reply I expected, but I can't fault their fast turn-around on tickets or friendly CS. :)
