OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Need Help...Windows 10 update (11/27/15) has Un-License OOTP16

Different issue after upgrading to Windows 10: License is fine, game loads from Steam, but on the start screen I get an error message that OOTP requires OpenGL version 1.4 or newer. I loaded my save game and snooped around and noticed that there had been a lot of promotions and demotions in my minor-league system, and the affected players had not been switched to the hats of their new teams.

Microsoft forums are spectacularly unhelpful on this. Also tried to adjust compatibility of the program to Windows 7, and got a message from Windows that OOTP is incompatible -- which, of course, is malarkey. Windows 10 says my drivers for the display adapter are up to date.

1.4 is an ancient version of OpenGL, correct? So this seems weird.

I loaded several other games from my Steam library (Crusader Kings II, Eastside Hockey Manager, Football Manager 2015) and got no error messages.

Incidentally, I tried to make this a new thread and got an error message that I wasn't authorized to do that in this forum, which also seems odd.
