Unknown Windows Version (Just a Nitpick)

[AGP]

Egon, you stubborn (occasionally likeable) man, do you think it's odd jpct still calls Windows 7 an "unknown Windows version?"

Also, is it possible to undo calling an enableCanvasRenderer() call? Does it take disabling the renderer and reenabling it (I'm trying to do the hardware fullscreen-only bit on my game)?

Where am i printing the windows version?

[AGP]

Right after "adding lightsource."

[EgonOlsen]

In which code? I can't find anything that prints out a Windows version.

About the undo...i'm not sure. You can try to disable it using the normal disable/enable-sequence, but i'm not sure how well this will work. Another option is to create a new framebuffer instead.

Must be lwjgl, then.

Thanks for the suggestion.

[AGP]

I realize this is an lwjgl question, but how do I hide the Display once created? Neither Display.releaseContext() nor Display.destroy() does it, so I'm at a loss.

[EgonOlsen]

Actually, buffer.disableRenderer(IRenderer.RENDERER_OPENGL); should do this!?

[AGP]

This is a block in the constructor inside a block that has tested for hardware. Neither the try (the fullscreen with hardware) nor the catch (the windowed with hardware after failing at fullscreen) work. How come?
