#OPENGL 4.4 UPDATE TO 4.5 FULL#

I have no plans to support anything older than 3.3.

base instance can't be set for instanced rendering, which means yet another buffer upload or uniform change per tile.

#OPENGL 4.4 UPDATE TO 4.5 DRIVERS#

Also, tried to update drivers for both Intel & nVidia. Originally, I was using intelвЂ™s integrated graphics card and the version of OpenGL on my win7 is only 1.1. But still, it shows OpenGL version as 4.0 in OpenGL Extension Viewer utility.

#OPENGL 4.4 UPDATE TO 4.5 DRIVER#

But after I installed the newest driver (version 337.81, released on perhaps May 13, 2014), the version of OpenGL is not upgraded.

shader storage buffers aren't available, so i'd need to either use uniform buffers (which are extremely slow with large sizes, and also can't be as big) or texture buffers (harder to use and imprecise) The newest driver provided by nVidia is claimed to support latest OpenGL version 4.4.

would permanently disable the reversed-z depth buffer, resulting in visible z-fighting on distant terrain GPUs with the new Turing architecture have many new OpenGL extensions giving developers access to new features. OpenGL Demos on K1 Shield Tablet Tegra K1 runs Android Kepler GPU hardware in K1 supports the full OpenGL 4.5 feature set Today 4.4, expect 4.5 support OpenGL 4.

I plan on adding multiple backwards-compatibility modes for older gl versions, which will come at the cost of performance and/or features (note that i haven't actually worked on this yet, so there might be more things i've forgotten about that would also have to change):

My i5-2520M can run up to gl 3.3 with Mesa drivers :P
