OpenGL framebuffer_object
« on: January 05, 2013, 09:03:49 pm »
I just bought the game Puddle (http://store.steampowered.com/app/222140/), and I can't run it. I get this error message when I try to start it:

I tried updating my graphics drivers and disabling and enabling VSync. I also tried looking on Google to see if I could install 'framebuffer_object', but I couldn't find anything. Can anyone here help me with this? I payed almost $10 for it, and it looks really fun.

In most cases, graphic card driver updates don't solve anything related to error messages unless the video card is very recent (eg 1 year old). You most likely need to buy a better video card (or a new mobo if your current one doesn't support any better graphic card).

This is my computer: http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/laptops/NP-R540-JA06US

The only thing that I can find out about my graphics card is that it's an Intel HD Graphics chipset.

Try this thing: OpenGL extension viewer
Use it to see if your renderer supports GL_ARB_framebuffer_object.

If it doesn't, well, wtf? Essentially everything supports it.. If it does, that game has a bug.

Ok, with google I found http://intercambiosos.org/showthread.php?t=29417 (Google translator, if needed)
Somebody there mentions, Intel Graphics don't support the game.

Integrated Intel graphics tend to have very horrible gaming support, although if the game is at least a few years older than the graphic card it generally works despite warnings. Everytime I check game boxes in stores, they list plenty of supported video cards, but I never ever see any Intel chip listed.

Really? All my other Steam games run fine and without lag. :/

Does Steam offer refunds for nonworking games? I couldn't find anything out about it with Google.

Ok this is just not right. Intel HD Graphics are supposed to support FBOs. Does this thingy help?

I already tried that, it said I was using a custom-made driver (by Samsung). I updated to the newest version from Samsung.

Ok then I don't know, sorry. Maybe there really isn't a solution, if you already have the newest driver..
