Reply #11 - 07.11.03 at 10:16:04 Still, problems could be far from over: even if the new drivers will support OpenGL 1.2, the whole support for OpenGl 1.1 should be fixed, and there's always the poblems with drivers and compatibilty. Hope is that there will be in the future OpenGL 1.2, 1.3... who knows were the OpenGL full support for Voodoo's will go...

Okay, guys!

I can't help myself! Grin

@Andrei
Yes, 1.1 is fully supported!

Reverse order:

@Blazkowicz

About

MesaGL

! Thank you for pointing that out... This one's from the God himself. Quote:

Geez!
About GLVIew statistics: it's old stuff! We've been working since then! Grin

@Patience & Lecram25
It shouldn't be long now! We need to clarify some legal issues (mainly for texture compression: FXT1, S3TC, DXTC).

@Patience & nick_the_mutt
The new Mesa 5.1 release will support full 1.1, 1.2! Partial 1.3, 1.4! No support for 1.5 or 2.0 so far!

Have a nice day Tongue

To dborca:

A nice thing that the OpenGL 1.1 is fully supported, and that 1.2 is near that. Indeed, there is some serious progress made, that is certainly.

Only a little thought: what games that used 1.1 and didn't work properly, do now, because everything that is added to the drivers, makes no effect, if still there are compatibility problems.

Anyway, a surprisingly fast sollution arrived. Good work!
