OpenGL 1.1? Isn’t that super old? Try updating it,

tried and failed. im trying to play it on this peice of junk and not spend hundreds on another computer

Unfortunately, that graphics chip is pretty old and won’t be able to run Stonehearth.

7

Do you know where\how to get a new one. I’ve been trying for 3 days and I really want to play this game

The 4 GB memory is also going to mean that you can’t build very large towns in stonehearth, and the dual core CPU will limit the number of hearthlings too.

However, if you want to get a cheap video card, the GT 710 would probably work. There’s one for $34 on Amazon.

ok and thank you but what i am not understanding is why it says it cant find opengl even though i have opengl 1.1

I believe we require at least OpenGL 3.0. OpenGL 1.1 is about 20 years old now.
