Hi, I'm trying to use Simulation CFD 2013, but every time I try to launch a very simple Revit model (just a generic extrusion) I get the message "OpenGL Error: RenderContext is NULL" and when I close the message Simulation CFD crashes. I've attached a screenshot of the error message. I have checked my graphic card dirver and it is up to date. Does anyone know how I can prevent this from happening? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Hi -
I'm not sure of solutions at this point, but could use more information.
Can you describe your operating system? (terms like, Win 7 x64 English language for example)
Can you share which version of Revit and if it is earlier than 2014, which installation (One box, MEP, Architeture for example)
Can you attach your simple Revit model?
Last question, Can you proceed through the launch process without closing that window? (note if you do see the error message in the cmd window - closing the window will crash the program)
Ideally, if you could do a video screen capture of your entire process from opening a model in Revit and launching, I may be able to determine the cuase of the problem. Jing, YouTube links can all be successful to attach.
Thanks,
Peggy
Hi,
"I get the message "OpenGL Error: RenderContext is NULL"
The message tells me that the error came from your video card. I guess the OpenGL driver of our video card is pretty old, Can you check to see which OpenGL version are you using? Or, you can directly go to the vendor's support/download web portal to download the latest driver to update your video card. Let us know if the latest driver still doesn't work with Simulation CFD 2013.
