==Moulagain crashes without a stackdump during the in-game download=
Cause: This can happen if the avi folder doesn't exist and it is downloading avi files through the in-game downloader. (It creates the dat
and sfx folders at startup but not avi for some reason.) So we need to have an avi folder in the client download.

Solution:
*Make sure you're using Drizzle29 or newer
*Create a text file called c:\talcum\DataserverSourceFiles\avi\readme.txt (It doesn't need anything in it.)
*Create a text file called c:\talcum\DataserverSourceFiles\DrizzleDataserverOverrides.txt (This is a file that tells Drizzle to associate certain files with certain Ages.)
*Inside this DrizzleDataserverOverrides.txt file, put the following line:
/avi/readme.txt{->}client.mfs
*(This makes sure that the client will create the avi folder before it gets to the in-game downloader.)
*Run the dataserver generator again
*(It should now download the readme.txt file during the client download so that the avi folder exists for the in-game avi downloads.)

Solution: use Drizzle29 or newer
