GZDoom not activating OpenGL

Post by Hoov_er »

In gzdoom, there's no option to turn on OpenGL-accelerated graphics. I've tried vid_rendermode 1 in the console.

Also older versions don't work for some reason(Says "GZDoom has stopped working")

It's 'vid_rendermode 4' , not 1.
The option is located in the Video Mode menu.

vid_rendermode 4 just sets it to "hardware accelarated".
