Icedrake Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I was going to start playing this game, but then an error message came from the game saying that I had OpenGL 1.2 and that the game needed OpenGL 1.3 or better. So how do I update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTskifreak Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I think it's tied to your graphics card drivers. What graphics card do you have, and what game is it? AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedrake Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 The game is called Glest, and I think my graphics card is VIA/S3G UniChrome IGP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTskifreak Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 HP update link to Drivers Is this of any use to you? You might be out of luck though. I think that's an onboard graphics card, and it might be beyond its useful life when it comes to games. A quick Wikipedia search shows that OpenGL is into version 3 from this past March Wiki OpenGL page. I know the latest drivers were in '04, but that's pushing into 5 years old. Sad to say it, but even basic gaming tasks beyond Flash games will be a problem without a modern graphics card. AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedrake Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Yeah my desktop is pretty old right now. About 4 years old. That's why I'm getting a new laptop next year. Should I install the update you gave above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
