Unable to initialize openGL

Post by Azuros »

Today when I tried to play Illa, it crashed down after I clicked log in and gave me the error "Unable to initialize openGL". This is what was in the error file:

Fatal error: Unable to initialize openGL.
Terminating client!
Tried restarting the computer, but that didn't help any. Also tried reinstalling java, but that didn't help either.

I am assuming you are playing on the same computer you have been.. and wondering if possibly a firewall is blocking something. Do you happen to have vista and have you updated it recently? I know vista and open GL don't combine yet some with vista have been able to play.
