Heretic E1M8 does not load

When I finish E1M7 and close the stats screen, the engine starts loading E1M8 but never succeedes. The doomsday.out contains the following log entries:

It seems that it is caused by something from the addon. If I disable the addons, everything is fine...

P.S. I found what causes that freeze - it is an addon named Decorations Updated 20110322 version 1.01

I've not come across this add-on before. Do you know where we might download it for debugging?

The pk3 file (decor-decor.pk3) is here: http://dox.bg/files/dw?a=23d84c0711

It seems to be getting stuck in an infinite loop whilst trying to spawn one of the plane particle generators. I'm currently looking into a potential fix...

Edit: This issue has now been fixed for the next candidate build.

Great. It is loading the level now. I will continue on with the testing
