Installation problems

OpenGL problems :

Please read the Tutorial first!

If the program crash at startup with a variety of error message try one of the following :

  • Disable the video card hardware acceleration in the Windows Display Property.
  • Update your video card driver from the card manufacturer web page ( ATI, NVIDIA, INTEL ). This is specialy important with Vista as the first available drivers are of poor quality.
  • Use the “Light” version of the program.

Windows problems :

If you run Windows 95 or Windows 98 and you receive a message about a missing export OLEAUT32.DLL:VarNot, please install the dcom update from Microsoft:
