In these days of social distancing, game developers and content creators all over the world are working from home and asking for help using Windows Remote Desktop streaming with the OpenGL tools they use. NVIDIA has created a special tool for GeForce GPUs to accelerate Windows Remote Desktop streaming with GeForce drivers R440 or later. Download and run the executable (nvidiaopenglrdp.exe) from the DesignWorks website as Administrator on the remote Windows PC where your OpenGL application will run. A dialog will confirm that OpenGL acceleration is enabled for Remote Desktop and if a reboot is required.

It is possible to use your application to draw on other application's windows. Once you have found the window you want, you have it's HWND, you can then use it just like it was your own window for the purposes of drawing. But since that window doesn't know you have done this, it will probably mess up whatever you have drawn on it when it tries to redraw itself.

There are some very complicated ways of getting around this, some of them involve using windows "hooks" to intercept drawing messages to that window so you know when it has redrawn so that you can do your redrawing as well.

I wrote an open source project a few years ago to achieve this on the desktop background. It's called Uberdash. If you follow the window hierarchy, the desktop is just a window in a sort of "background" container. Then there is a main container and a front container. The front container is how windows become full screen or "always on top." You may be able to use Aero composition to render a window with alpha in the front container, but you will need to pass events on to the lower windows. It won't be pretty.

To me it seems Windows is skipping redraws of non-OpenGL windows when an OpenGL SwapBuffers takes place regularly in a separate thread. But also in my case, there are things that make this disappear - for example, starting another windows timer refreshing a window every 15ms, or using spy++ as you mention.

I'm trying to install Sketchup 2019 on a Windows 10 VM (Ubuntu 18.04, QEMU 3.1.0), however Sketchup requires OpenGL 3.1 or later in order to run. I had asked a similar question previously hoping by enabling 3D acceleration with Virgl would work, however even though I was able to enable Virgl on the host and have the option to choose 3D acceleration with Virtio, OpenGL is still not on my windows VM. I then instead passed through an MSI GeForce GT 710 Nvidia GPU which works and shows up on the VM, however OpenGL still doesn't exist and Sketchup won't run.

ive just started using Windows 365, mostly for being able to access a computer from virtually anywhere, but I've cone into an issue while trying to install some games that opengl doesn't seem to work, I've tried downloading it and putting it in the correct java folder, but it doesn't change the outcome, and with the issue with not being able to download the newest update, I don't really know how to solve the issue.

The solution? A patch made for windows 8.1, using windows update sh177y compatiblity drivers, replacing dlls by w7 ones, adding desktop software gpu manager, and patching the windows registry, enabling openGL capatibilities to be detected by softwares on top of already being there.

Already tried Starbound with an other driver for this card, which reported 2.0 opengl instead of 2.1, and surprise, the game wasn't able to start. Starbound is known for being, on top of poorly optimised, unable to even launch the menu without opengl 2.1.

In the documentations, I already saw multiple times this chip reffered as max 2.0 opengl capable, but in facts, it's doing great at running opengl 2.1 tasks, as long as you are on the already-rusty windows 7.

Speaking of the windows 10 drivers for this chip. Because they exist! They are in the windows driver store, and rocks only 1.1 opengl. Installing older drivers doesn't cause any issues in Windows 10, and allows some 1.1-2.1 to work.

While the chip is "supported" on windows 8, the driver provided is so poorly featured, most people prefere to use the windows 7 driver on w8, because "supported" doesn't mean "well supported", and they usually encounter the same issue with openGL than I do on windows 10, so let's say there is barely no difference between support and no support in the W8 - W10 case.

This is the first time for me working with opengl in linux any way i managed to break through and using this tutorial coned
and i tested some of the codes from the tutorials on this site and every thing is going ok but when i try an opengl sample code made for windows it refuses to compile so my question is

If you're on Windows the OpenGL library opengl32.lib comes with the Microsoft SDK, which is installed by default when you install Visual Studio. Since this chapter uses the VS compiler and is on windows we add opengl32.lib to the linker settings. Note that the 64-bit equivalent of the OpenGL library is called opengl32.lib, just like the 32-bit equivalent, which is a bit of an unfortunate name.

I made a small program that called opengl myself (without SDL) and the startup delay still happens.
I ran line by line in the code to see where is the problem and the result is strange: I posted about that here -> -discussion/t/2503-[day_235]_opengls_pixel_format_takes_a_long_time#12632

GLFW is an Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES andVulkan development on the desktop. It provides a simple API for creatingwindows, contexts and surfaces, receiving input and events.

Dear Geant4 team,
I am used to practicing GEANT4 on Linux but today, I challenged myself trying to make a G4-based application on windows.
First, I have installed Qt5.15.2 with the modules that are shown in the picture below:

Of course, when I execute the viewer with /vis/open OGL, the terminal responds that I do not have an OGL driver. I can execute the other drivers but I would like to see the geometry and track interactively. So, my focus is on the OpenGL driver.
In other topics of this forum, I saw that people have the following additional drivers and I believe I have to get those drivers to be able to use the OpenGL visualization on windows.

Fusion 8.5 was pre-installed as was Windows 10 Bootcamp. Apart from a few issues with Windows 10 activation when switching between a Virtual Machine and booting directly into windows its been pretty stable.

One final thing. As before when the virtual machine starts the window is a very long letterbox extending off the screen. I have to drag one side in to see the desktop. Once windows has properly booted and the video driver takes over it returns tro a normal aspect ratio. Is there anything I can do about this or just put up with this behaviour?

having same problem on my brand new computer with 3080ti it also shows opengl probe error and closes out on cura 5. looks more like a bug because all other virsions or cura including the latest 4.13 work without issues.

1. Go to the GLDirect page on SourceForge Download gldirect5_opensource.zip.
2. Extract the contents. Go to the gldirect5\bin\release folder.
3. Copy opengl32.dll to your GameData folder.
4. Start the game

Found this after about 9 seconds on google. A little self-direction can go a long way.

Hey, i have a similar issue. i have a windows 98 that has windows xp version 2002 with an intel pentuim III processor 731 MHz, and 512 MB of RAM. ive had jedi outcast 2 in the past on this computer before and even before it had xp im pretty sure. At that time though the disc i had of jkjo2 was a clone copy that i got from a friend. now i had went and purchased a actual copy of the game less than a month ago and i should have all the performance i need to play the game. however when i start it up this is what i get:

GLUT (and hence freeglut) takes care of all the system-specific choresrequired for creating windows, initializing OpenGL contexts, and handling inputevents, to allow for trully portable OpenGL programs.
