Re: OpenGL 3D won’t display models


How would I verify if my env.4d is based on and old version?

Re: OpenGL 3D won’t display models

Hi Nathan

I have had a look at the file you sent.
It looks like 12d Model is using the graphics card.
There may be an available update for the graphics card drivers.

Have you tried opening the project without your customisation?
