OpenGL doesnt work anymore

01-18-2019, 11:46 PM #1

Hey Guys,

so recently Dolphin doesnt work with OpenGL. I really don't know why, since I didnt change anything.
Starting it with OpenGL gives me this Error Message, sometimes i dont get anything but a blackscreen. The Audio still plays in the background tho.

"Error unexpected $end at token <EOF>. C000 Huh

I'm using Dolphin 5 on windows 10 x64 and as said before, it did work earlier. Drivers are uptodate.

CPU: i7 7400U
GPU: 940mx

I couldnt find anything specific on the Internet, sadly :/

I added some dump Files as Well as the Error message. Help is much appreciated Smile

Does this happen in the latest dev build of Dolphin? Have you done a computer restart (not shutdown but an actual restart to get around fast boot issues)?

didnt use a dev build yet.

So i tried to recreate the Error and it seems to be a bug, somehow.

I deleted the config and Gamesettings Folder in \Dolphin Emulator and restarted Dolphin. Since OpenGL ist selected by default, I just started one game and it actually worked!
After switching to d3d, starting a game and switching back to openGL, I got the same error as before. So I can't wrap my head around why it doesnt work, but I need to fix this.
Any Ideas how ?

Yeah, start by always using the latest devbuild. 5.0 is a couple of years old by now and 99% sure that the issue you are facing has already been solved in the latest version.
