anyone!

[micheus]

I have no clue about this issue. I wonder if dgud could check this. (and that can take some time)

I just have access to PC's with AMD Radeon and Intel HD video card as well as Windows 7 Professional or Windows 10 Professional - both 64bits - and don't have this kind of problem.

[dgud]

Try updating you graphics drivers.

I have changed the check for FBO from

is_ext('GL_EXT_framebuffer_object').

to

is_ext('GL_ARB_framebuffer_object').

They are the same and should be in OpenGL-2.1 be both included or none. But in your case
only the second is available.. sigh.
Ok will change back in the next release.

Hi All,

I am having the same issue on an older laptop I just revived for my 3D printing workshop; I updated Windows 7, all drivers, including Nvidia gfx card, but I still get the error for V2.1.7. Older version seems to work ok.

This post is flagged as Fixed? Is there a way for me now to get V2.1.7 running? Or jsut have to wait for next release?

Thanks!

Joris

Yes, it was fixed and should be available in the next release.

Usually, when I fix something I try to make the .beam available, but that is not a rule. dgud has been working in a lot of things and sometimes it can be hard to make a fix he worked available before a new release.

But, that seems to not be the case.
So, try to replace the file wings_gl.beam; check if it worked for you and don't forget to give me a feedback.

[dgud]

With Nvidia drivers it should work already, this fix is for really old cards and drivers.

Are you sure you are using the nvidia card? Laptop can often be run on both Nvidia and on Intel/Amd builtin
to save battery, check what Help/OpenGL info says.

Will try to make a new release soon'ish.. got some bugs I need to debug first, working on it.

[remvs]

Thank you for the quick and clear support both!
I will follow up later today when I tried out your suggestions

Micheus, dgud,

The new .beam file did the trick! Thank you for the support!
Attached my GL info.

Regards,
Joris

[micheus]

Thanks for the feedback.
So, that means the next release will be OK for you too.
