Hello,

some students in our class are getting this error when trying to create tile map:  
“com.jogamp.opengl.GLException: Method “glGenBuffers” not available”  
Any idea what that might be/how to avoid it? We are using Defold 2.0.  
Thanks in advance!

Hmm, which version of the editor are you using? Is it Windows, Linux or OSX? Do you have updated graphics drivers?

Version: 1.2.100, Windows.  
Not sure about graphics drivers, will check their computers in the next lesson.

Make sure to check what OpenGL version is supported, I think both the editor and engine need \>2.1 or something like that. The OGL version can be viewed with: [GLview: Advanced OpenGL, DirectX, Metal Capabilities Viewer](http://realtech-vr.com/admin/glview)
