Greetings, Due to the number of problems that arise when rendering on Intel video cards, we're going to automatically disable new rendering features if an Intel video card is detected. You will be able to use PyMOL, but with the older, slower, uglier rendering. Also, you can override this autodetection by manually setting "use_shaders" to 1 and "sphere_mode" to 9.
The Intel Express and Intel HD chipsets are the worst offenders, but a review also indicated others are problematic as well. If someone has an Intel card that works perfectly and renders nicely with shaders, please let me know what card it is. To do this, just start PyMOL and copy these lines into an email for me: This Executable Build integrates and extends Open-Source PyMOL 1.5.0.3. Detected OpenGL version 2.0 or greater. Shaders available. Detected GLSL version 1.20. OpenGL graphics engine: GL_VENDOR: XXX GL_RENDERER: XXX GL_VERSION: XXX where "XXX" will vary based on your card. We will attempt to more finely detect which Intel cards are good and which are bad so that we can still deliver good performance to those whose video cards can handle it.
