#Is opengl 4.3 still used for mac
When I try to start nTopology, the error "OpenGL Context Creation Failed" occurs. Starting with Parallels Desktop 16 for Mac the support for OpenGL 3.3.In case you have several graphics cards in your system, please make sure that the one that is connected to your monitor meets these requirements. If you have a compliant graphics card in your system and still get this message, please make sure that the appropriate drivers from the manufacturer are installed and up to date. You may try to contact the system manufacturer for assistance, but most likely, upgrading the graphics card is required for this system to be compliant with nTopology. OpenGL is a standard for rendering 3D graphics used by GPU manufacturers, and implementation is mostly related to hardware. August 6th, 2012 Los Angeles, SIGGRAPH 2012 The Khronos Group today announced the immediate release of the OpenGL 4.3 specification, bringing the very latest graphics functionality to the most advanced and widely adopted cross-platform 2D and 3D graphics API (application programming interface). It supports both more complex textures and a standardized way to compress textures.
This error occurs if the graphics card is out of date. OpenGL ES 3.0 adds a handful of features from versions 3.x and 4.x of the main OpenGL spec. NTopology requires an OpenGL 4.3 compliant graphics card. I want to upgrade the OpenGL version to enable software functionality. OpenGL Extensions Viewer for Android displays the vendor name, the version, the renderer name and the extensions for OpenGL ES 1.0 to ES 3.2 and Vulkan.Is it possible to upgrade or downgrade OpenGL versions?.Opening nTopology triggers an error message "Failed to Initialize OpenGL.".
