Significance of OpenGL Version?

<< < (2/2)

AlecJames:
Does Anim8or run on Windows 8.1 outside of virtual box?  I'm not using 8.1 as yet.

Hello AlecJames:
Yes, it does. I run Anim8or in Windows 8.1 on my desktop and in Windows 7 on my laptop. I have not noticed a difference.

Steve:
The version in the upper corner is temporary.  It's there to make it easy to see if you are using the new OpenGL code paths or not to help me debug problems with some people's computers.  You can toggle back to the old one with the Options->Debug->NewOpenGLRenderer command.

I plan on removing the old path (and the notation in the upper right corner) when I'm closer to make this all an official release.

Cool, this made points and edges visible in point edit mode when running in Anim8or in Virtualbox. Maybe there will be a new video driver for the Windows 8 VM by the time you get around to removing the old path.
