Troubleshooting
Q: I click the ludiloom icon and nothing happens.
A: Make sure you have the last graphics drivers. Also verify that you monitor's resolution is at least 1024x768. Verify that you have all dependencies installed, the ones following the ludiloom installation (Microsoft Runtime Libraries and PhysX Tools).
Q: Using Linux I get an error creating OpenGL context.
A: This probably means that you have no OpenGL acceleration in your X session. Refer to your Linux distribution documentation in order to enable 3D acceleration.
