GEF3D requires at least OpenGL 1.5. For performance reasons, GEF3D uses some OpenGL features which are not part of OpenGL 1.5:

If you got an error message opening one of our examples which starts with

<code>java.lang.IllegalStateException: Function is not supported
	at org.lwjgl.BufferChecks.checkFunctionAddress
	   (BufferChecks.java:69)
	at org.lwjgl.opengl.EXTFramebufferObject.glGenFramebuffersEXT
	   (EXTFramebufferObject.java:187)
	at de.feu.draw3d.texture.Texture.createFbo(Texture.java:157)
 ...</code>

you'll probably have to update your OpenGL driver (or your graphics card). You may want to look at the [OpenGL wiki articles on hardware specifics] (with special pages for NVidia, ATI, and Intel graphics).


List of Tested Graphics Cards

The following graphics cards (and virtual machines) were successfully tested. You may have to update your driver in order to make your card work. If your card is working but not listed here, please write a post to GEF3D's newsgroup.

Remarks:

  • GEF3D revision is only a hint and does not necessarily indicate other reversions to work or not work. The revision is the revision number of the SVN repository
Feel free to update this list, especially if your system is working!

Working

Manufacturer Graphics Card Model OS Driver Version GEF3D revision Graphics3D Impl State Remarks
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT Mac OS X OS X 10.5/10.6 rev. 229 LWJGL ok primary GEF3D development system
NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M Mac OS X OS X 10.6 rev. 448 LWJGL ok primary GEF3D development system
ATI  Radeon X1600/X1650 Win XP 7.9 nn LWJGL ok
ATI Radeon X700 Series Win XP  8.8 nn  LWJGL ok ATI Catalyst 8.8 Display Driver used
ATI HIS Excalibur Radeon 9550 ViVo+DVI Win XP 8.7 (July 2008) nn LWJGL ok ATI Catalyst(TM) 8.7 Display Driver
VMware VMware Fusion (on Mac OS X) Win XP 3.0.2 rev. 448 LWJGL ok Win XP running in VM with VMWare Fusion, with GeForce GT 330M

Not Working

The following cards are not working (as far as we know), mainly because they do not suport FBOs. In elder versions of GEF3D, we tried to support cards without FBO, but this is too much work for us and almost all newer cards do support FBOs.

Manufacturer Graphics Card Model OS Driver Version GEF3D revision. Graphics3D Impl State Remarks
Matrox Matrox Millennium P-Series Win XP 1.4.2.7 nn  LWJGL no FBO not supported
