Lantern Engine: a launcher and engine that runs your own Bloodborne on Windows

Awakenchan's Lantern Engine is a launcher and engine that runs your own copy of Bloodborne natively on Windows. It's built on deadinside28's bbport and a shadPS4-derived renderer, the same base as the main Bloodborne PC port already on the wire. v0.9.33 (Oct 16) is a hotfix. Editions other than CUSA03173, like CUSA00900, now start with a warning, but they run at the game's own 30 FPS because the FPS, resolution and camera patches only fit CUSA03173.
