What operating system are you running and do you have the latest drivers installed for your graphics card?

Could you download either [url]https://github.com/downloads/Luomu/pioneer/glewInfo.zip[/url] or [url]https://sourceforge.net/projects/glew/f[/url] ... p/download. It contains a glewInfo.exe, run it and it will create a file glewInfo.txt which list all the supportex OpenGL extensions. Paste the file to pastebin.com or somewhere.

Seems like it should be ok then. I take it you've not had trouble with earlier versions?Are there any other opengl errors outputted into the stdout.txt or stderr.txt log files in the Documents/Pioneer directory?I don't have access to a similarly spec'ed machine to reproduce the error on and the information so far isn't a lot to go on.The card should support VBOs, the drivers are recent, the OS is supported by our builds I think.Have you tried another build such as one of the nightlies, or an earlier alpha?

We should consider building these kind of diagnostics into the game, perhaps as Lua functions to be called from the console.
