OpenGL Error on Mac - 'gl_test' error on load [RESOLVED]

[LeonDaydreamer]

Hi, my name is Leon. I've been working on the game Put A Sock In It!

We're trying to put together the final builds for different platforms, and we seem to be running into an issue when loading the game on Mac.
It spits out the following error message as soon as I load it:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 159, in script call
    call _gl_test
  File "renpy/common/00gltest.rpy", line 378, in script
    $ __gl_test()
  File "renpy/common/00gltest.rpy", line 378, in <module>
    $ __gl_test()
  File "renpy/common/00gltest.rpy", line 304, in _m1_00gltest__gl_test
    _gl_performance_test()
  File "renpy/common/00gltest.rpy", line 321, in _gl_performance_test
    ui.interact(suppress_underlay=True, suppress_overlay=True)
error: Unsupported image format

I get that it's testing OpenGL support, and apparently it doesn't like the image format... looking into 00gltest.rpy, the image appears to be set to:

Code: Select all

config.gl_test_image = "black"

This is the first time we tried putting together a Mac build, so I wouldn't be surprised if we missed something. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :)

We still seem to be getting this error on Mac. Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

A friend said that Mac supports OpenGL 4.1, which is an API from 2010, and that if Ren'Py is trying to use a more recent version it might have some issues. Does that make sense?

Hm... The problem here is that the GL test is the first time Ren'Py does soemthing, so a lot of the GUI is exercised at the same time. The full traceback would be a lot more informative than what you've posed, but my guess is that it's probably an incorrect file type for config.window_icon, which has to be a .png, not a .icns.

[LeonDaydreamer]

Oh, thanks a lot PyTom! :)
You're right, we are using an .icns file.
I'll correct it and hopefully that will solve things.
