Common problems and questions!
Where should I report bugs?
Please post any bugs you encounter in the Bug reports subforum on Steam.
Include a debug logfile, and if relevant a screenshot of the problem.
If the logfile is large you can use a free paste service, such as ZeroBin, and link to it.
How do I post my debug logfile?
The debug logfiles can be found in the logs folder in the path where Gods and Idols is installed.
The logfiles are just normal textfiles, simply double click it, copy the contents, and paste them in your bug-report post.

Game does not start at all / OpenAL error!
This is most often caused by a Steam error during installation.
OpenAL not being installing properly by Steam is a Steam issue and there's unfortunately nothing I can do to fix it.
You can try manually installing OpenAL by downloading it from www.openal.org/downloads/oalinst.zip
If you are still having issues after trying these steps please post a bug report with your debug logfile.
The mouse cursor is always missing/invisible!
Disable cursor shadow, and cursor trail in Windows.

How do I reset the settings back to default?
