Software Rendering

System documentation for ResInsight


Qt5 with software rendering

When using ResInsight in Remote Desktop on Windows, software rendering is required. This mode can be activated by renaming a DLL in the same folder as ResInsight.exe: Rename opengl32sw.dll to opengl32.dll

NB OBSOLETE, relevant for Qt4

In some cases, shader support is not available. This is the case when ResInsight is used over a Remote Desktop connection on Windows.

Download OS Mesa and

Copy the files following files from mesa-binaries\x64 into the same folder as ResInsight.exe :

libglapi.dll 
opengl32.dll
