    Hello ASGer,

    Looking at your issue indeed it seems OpenGL version is right.

    What you could try doing is at the root of the installation of omnis5.2 there is a opengl32.dll file present. Could you try to copy it under the bin directory. (omnis5.2/bin)

    Then try to run the software and let me know how it goes for you.

    Regards

    Judy

    Hey Judy,

    It hast worked until yesterday to open Omnis with your instruction above, but now I'm again getting the window where stands, that my OpenGL Version is too low although I tried to run Omnis with no OpenGL Check... have you any solutions for that? I would be happy for and advice. 

    Thank you and regards

    Hello Maxi,

    If omnis was working till yesterday do you know what has been major changes occurred since then, like Windows update that occurred recently, any new installation. reinstallation of the software or anything that could probably cause the issue.

    Also does using -noOpenGlCheck flag does not work for you?

    Thanks

    Judy

    Hello Judy,

    as I know, there haven't been any major updates or any changes on my PC-setup. I have also restarted my system, which didn't helped. 

    Using the flag noOpenGLCheck hast worked until the Day I was trying to open Omnis. Now I'm again getting the message that my OpenGL Version is too low, although I was using the flag command.

    Thank you

    Maxi

    Hi Maxi,

    Could you make sure there is no typo mistake when you add the flag -noOpenGLCheck.

    run the following omnisClient.bat -noOpenGLCheck

    Could you verify again and see if this works well?

    Thanks 

    Judy
