In extreme cases, I may need more information about Cyclops' behavior on your computer. Please follow these debugging steps so I can pinpoint the issue and hopefully resolve it quickly.

<aside> ⚠️

To complete the debugging process, you'll need Google Chrome installed on your computer.

Send Debugging Info

  1. Attempt another Cyclops render. It may fail, but that's okay for now.
  2. Go back to Chrome and take a screenshot of the page. You'll likely see red text.
  3. Send that screenshot to me.
