jReality - the forum

I don't understand what jogl3 means.

The jogamp.org site has published jogamp up to version 2.3.2.

Does jogl3 mean jogl using a particular mode, like GL3 or GL3bc or something else?

Both use jogamp as you get it from the website.

jogl uses the old rendering techniques while jogl3 uses the newer render system as establish in OpenGL 3. jogl and jogl3 are two different viewer inside jReality. Picking one means using a specific render cycle.

In theory jogl3 should run faster but implementation issues have made it slower. We wish to fix that someday.
