OpenGL 3.2 error for point clouds

  • 1.  OpenGL 3.2 error for point clouds

    Posted 08-12-2020 06:48

    Today I'm getting a OpenGL 3.2 error for point clouds. The only difference from yesterday, when I had no error, is that I'm working in my company's office instead of at home.  I have a standalone graphics card which appears to be working, I've updated the Sentiel Hasp, updated graphics driver, laptop drivers, changed the scaling of the screen I'm using, all without getting rid of the error.  Any ideas?

    I started TBC unconnected to my universal dock and it opened a point cloud VCE file ok. Plugged into the dock and everything is working at the moment.  It's odd because I have the same dock at home, just slightly different screen plugged into it.

    Hi Robert,

     

    Make sure that your third-party graphics card (like one from NVIDIA) is what TBC is using.  You can do this for NVIDIA (and others that have a control panel) within the NVIDIA Control Panel and selecting either the high-performance default mode or navigate to TBC in the program dropdown list and select it for the high-performance NVIDIA card.

     

    Thanks,
