Dan has given you the ability to pick which level of OpenGL you Want. The current software auto-detects and sets the appropriate level.

Level 1 was released 1997,

Level 2 released in 2004,

Level 3 was released in 2010.




All of these changes in the last few weeks have been to allow xLights to run at Level 3. If you have issues try reducing the level of your OpenGL libraries by using the "Settings,OpenGL".
