xAbraKaZebra Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 My card is an AMD Radeon HD 7670M some have said that it does work, but others say no. Can someone please help me? Please excuse me if this is in the wrong section or anything, I just really need help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji385 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I am not sure what version of OpenGL leadwerks uses, Your Onboad Video Chipset should support OpenGL 4.2. I would reference this with the System requirements on steam. Just double Checked the system requirements. It should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavex Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I have an older Radeon HD card and it works so I think your fine. Graphics OpenGL 4.0 deferred renderer with uniform lighting model supports any number of lights, all casting soft dynamic shadows. Up to 32x hardware MSAA makes rendered images incredibly sharp and detailed. Full support for vertex, fragment, geometry, and tessellation shaders. Dynamic megatexture terrain provides fast rendering of terrains with many layers. Hierarchical hardware occlusion queries provides fast visibility testing. Hardware tessellation for dynamic real surface displacement on the GPU. Normal mapping with specular and cubemap reflections. Instanced rendering allows fast drawing of large volumes of objects. Hardware skinning provides fast skinned animation. Deferred transparency with multiple overlapping layers of shading. Real-time mesh modification. Trilinear and up to 16x anisotropic filtering. Blend and transition animation sequences. Extract animation sequences in the editor. Quote Steam Profile /r/Leadwerks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xAbraKaZebra Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 Thanks for your help guys/girls. I am having one other problem which is why I focused on getting that out of the way. I am confronted by an error. "Failed to initialize Graphics. Your hardware may not be supported." I have looked at other pages but they seem to have nothing other than loose ends. Also it might be worth adding that I also have an Intel HD Graphics 4000, whether that is conflicting with the my Graphics card I am unaware of.

In the same computer? O.o Well you could always remove one to see if it is the issue Quote Steam Profile /r/Leadwerks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 If you install the Intel graphics drivers it will work, though it might be using the integrated chip instead of the discrete GPU. I would actually install both the ATI and Intel driver, because I saw on Nvidia setups the switching didn't work with older drivers.

Guppy Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 In the same computer? O.o Well you could always remove one to see if it is the issue It's an integrated graphics card - people tend to slap a dedicated one in either because of output options or speed. The quick fix would be to disable the intel gfx card in bios (if it lets you) the downside to that is you cannot use it to offload calculation on ( opencl, etc ) Quote System: Linux Mint 17 ( = Ubuntu 14.04 with cinnamon desktop ) Ubuntu 14.04, AMD HD 6850, i5 2500k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xAbraKaZebra Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 everything is definitely update. One of my friends, he's really, really good with Computers and stuff, sat there and went through it with me. I updated my drivers and stuff.

Josh Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 You can also find a program called GPUCapsViewer and it will display your OpenGL capabilities. Also, Leadwerks creates a log file here: "C:/Users/username/AppData/Local/Leadwerks/Leadwerks.log" If you post the contents of that file we can see what GPU is in use and what OpenGL version it supports.

Tim Shea Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 On my laptop, Leadwerks and Leadwerks games have to be run with the discrete GPU, even though the Intel HD 4000 supports OpenGL 4. This means finding the executable and selecting a checkbox for "Run with High Performance GPU" in the properties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xAbraKaZebra Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 Wow, never thought I would get this much help guys. Thanks so much! Josh. Here is the contents discovered in the directory you listed. Initializing OpenGL4 graphics driver... OpenGL version 400 GLSL version 400 Device: Intel® HD Graphics 4000 Error: Failed to create background context. Failed to initialize graphics. Your graphics hardware may not be supported.

Kavex Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 From what it looks like it's trying to open up using integrated card. Since you are using Radeon HD 7670M then look in your bois and see if you can disable the intel one. Also might be able to just set it to discreet.

AudiDJ Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I have a question, but it maybe more of a joke for others. I have a Intel HD Graphics Family Card. Is there any hope that I can run Leadwerks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdna Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Most of the new Intel HD GPUs support OpenGL 4.0, with the appropriate drivers installed. You can find information here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Intel_graphics_processing_units btw, Leadwerks 3.1 also works on Geforce 740M (laptop) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiDJ Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 The version is HD Graphics 3000. Will that work? And what happens if it is lower than OpenGL 4? Will it still run it? etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandrewk Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 The version is HD Graphics 3000. Will that work? And what happens if it is lower than OpenGL 4? Will it still run it? etc. According to this review the Intel HD Graphics 3000 only supports OpenGL up to version 3.0. If your supported OpenGL version is below 4.0 Leadwerks won't run.

mspike Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Stupid question, any way to start the program on linux with Intel card ? Thanks in advance ! Its an - Intel HD Graphics 4000, so I think opengl version should be okay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Unfortunately, Intel does not support OpenGL 4 with their Linux drivers, even though the hardware is capable of it.
