FAQ - Please read before posting
If you are experiencing problems starting the game please check the following:

• Check that you have the latest version of Pneuma
• Verify the integrity of the game cache. This will solve the problem in most of the cases

If you’re still experiencing problems, please create a new thread in the Technical Issues - Bug Reports forum and post a detailed description of your problem.

Where are the save games stored?
\Steam\steamapps\common\Pneuma Breath of Life\Observer\Saved\SaveGames

How do I change my key bindings?
You can either modify the following ini file:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pneuma Breath of Life\Observer\Saved\Config\CleanSourceConfigs\Input.ini

or in a more cleaner fashion you can add your changes to the ini file located at:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pneuma Breath of Life\Observer\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Input.ini

For example if you wanted to change your movement keys to A, B, C and D you should add the following:

[/script/engine.inputsettings]
AxisMappings=(AxisName="MoveForward",Key=A,Scale=1.000000)
AxisMappings=(AxisName="MoveRight",Key=B,Scale=-1.000000)
AxisMappings=(AxisName="MoveForward",Key=C,Scale=-1.000000)
AxisMappings=(AxisName="MoveRight",Key=D,Scale=1.000000)

Common Issues:
We’ve been hearing reports that the game may not start if there is no current sound device connected. Please check that you have the speaker icon in your task tray.

Oculus Setup Instructions

Setup instructions:

• Close the game entirely
• Make sure you have the 0.4.4 beta runtimes
• Plug in the Oculus (we’ve been using the DK2 in the studio)
• Check that you are using Direct HMD mode
• Start the game
• You should see ‘OCULUS MODE’ in the main menu (although the menu itself is still in regular mode)
• Start the first level and you should see the Oculus mode become active. If you have played the game without the Oculus you might remember that there is a short period where you hear Pneuma talking and you cannot move. Wait for around 10-15 seconds and the door should open to reveal the way forward. You might have to use the mouse to turn correctly as the Oculus overrides the initial forward facing direction.

I can't find any instructions on how to get VR mode to work. DK2. Thanks!

Says I am in Oculus mode but all I get is sound (voice, music, etc) but nothing on screen or in DK2. :(
jfaulken Feb 27, 2015 @ 2:33pm 
reading on r/oculus it sounds like the menus are all ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up (read: no vr support) but it snaps into full 3D+tracking once you're in game? about to try it again.
jfaulken Feb 27, 2015 @ 2:33pm 
are you running extended or direct? oculus redditors recommend extended it seems.
jfaulken Feb 27, 2015 @ 2:40pm 
yeah, that black screen at the beginning is part of the game :) just wait for him to talk for a while and then things get interesting. make sure to move the stick/mouse to look around.

i got it to work using dk2 as main screen, extended mode. One you enter the game screen menu is 2D but when you start the game it works. My first impresion was Wow! scale looks very good, but when i move my head stuttering appears and is really annoying. Using a 970, i5 4690k and 8gb 1600 cl7. Hope developers work a little more in the oculus support...

No oculus mode here, i waited for the game to start and two lights appeared after black(speaking) screen, only 2D mode, all other games i got from Steam (HL2's, WoD, Star Conflict, Lunar Flight..) and no Steam working flawlessly..
Any help??

i had double vision, meaning instead of a single image it was doubled, one for each eye....any ideas on how to solve this issue?
Lutz Mar 1, 2015 @ 2:09am 
my fault: "in DK2 I can´t see anything (except the "Warning of oculus rift himself "press any key") only sound. Lights on....nothing happened :-(
Like others...Star Conflict, War Thunder, Elite:Dangerous - all working with DK2
18€ for nothing?"

I´m not a god, I´m an idiot. When light turns on.....only look left side....there you can see it :-)

wrong or old nvidia graphics driver?

i got it working in oculus direct mode too, but screen menu appears in 2D in your monitor. One you start a game image goes to oculus automatically, but again stuttering is very annoying.

Yeah, I had this exact issue. It was a problem with the early 3d support in the newest round of nVidia drivers. Update to latest and it solves the problem!

I'm waiting to play this game until it gets optimized for the rift, I'm getting bad juder/ghosting running 16gb ram, i7-4790k, and gtx970

Mee too, i made a gameplay for a first 30 min, but stop playing because an horrible juddering, with the last runtime 0.5.1 the direct mode work best than extended mode. But still have a little juddering with gtx 970.
