Hi Hanisch and welcome to the Forum Widelands can't find an OpenGL environment. I am not an expert for VirtualBox, so i am not sure if widelands starts in a VirtualBox. Which graphics card is used? And which driver? If you have installed the package
The strings shown above are from my maschine. ![]() ![]() |

As I remember installing Widelands on my Virtual Machine (VM ware player) it was without any problem. Have you installed standard VM Player drivers? Also - as you are using VM - have you consider using another Linux environment? I used Ubuntu. But probably Mint is also OK for VM Player. einstein13 ![]() ![]() |
