No more pointer after drinking the fluid in the first room - titiz94 - 05-30-2018

Bonjour,

I just started the game and I can't leave the first room.
Once I drink the fluid, the pointer disappears and I can't interact with anything anymore !

I started a new game and had the same problem.

Coulld you help me on this ?

Thank you

Send here you hpl.log file. You can find it on MyDocuments>myGames>soma>main>hpl.log

Also, did you try to interact with the exit door?

I tried to interact with the front door but nothing happened.

I attached the hpl.log. There's a lot of erros :

I guess you can try to do a Steam integrity check for the game. In the Steam client, right click > properties > Local files > Verify integrity of game cache. Maybe that'll help.

Thank you Mudbill.
I tried the verification tool but it did not find any issue. I started the game and the problem was still here.
So I uninstalled the game, and installed it again but the problem was still here.
