Hello guys!

I am always getting this error ingame:
https://gyazo.com/327d8eeab9af24c6711ebe9c1f809252

This error doesn't effect the performance of Minecraft, but it's getting spammed in the chat every 30 seconds. And yes, i am using Optifine.

As the code is the same no matter where you go, either you have not downloaded something correctly or the most likely answer is you need to download a graphics card driver update, if you havent recently updated it then it will install a new version of opengl for your graphics card to use. This should fix all of the problems.

If you are using AMD then you can search for your card on this site: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download

And if you are using NVidia then you can use this site: https://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-uk

Hope this fixes your problem. Even if it doesn't then it is recommended to update your drivers every now and then.

Im thinking you have a memory error.

I do recomend making a backup of you optifine accout!

1. Relaunch minecraft
2. Select the Optifine account thats using 1.8
3. Click edit profile
4. Checkmark the JVM Arguments
5. CTRL + A "Selects all text"
6. Backspace
7. copy this -Xmx1G < this will add 1 gigabyte of ram to minecraft. You can add as much as you want but dont add all of it because thats what loads games and your computer up fast.
8. Save Profile
9. then try it know.

Try uninstalling optifine and reinstalling it again, or uninstall minecraft(Backup any servers and worlds that you have) And install minecraft and optifine again.

Try downgrading your Java version. If you're running Windows 10, then you NEED a Java version BELOW 8u60. If your Java version is above 8u60, then downgrade it to, like 8u51. Here's the link to Java 8u51:
http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/ ... eId=107943
http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/ ... eId=107944
Just simply uninstall your current Java version if you're above 8u60 and then install this one. It worked for me when I had that annoying OpenGl error. The game wouldn't even start. But then, I downgraded my Java version and it was fixed!
Hope this helps.

This is only partly correct.

This actually does fix the issue if you are using a Sandy Bridge CPU with the integrated graphics (the Intel HD 2000/3000 series). In any other case, this fix will not resolve the problem, and several things are in play as it if the machine actually supports Windows 10.

The following will tell if the Intel GPU is supported on Windows 10:
http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-034343.htm

If it is not mark supported, but is the Sandy Bridge CPU, then the fix seems to work. Otherwise, you are out of luck and need to downgrade.

AMD support only starts at the Radeon HD 5000 series and up for Windows 10, and so anything lower cannot work on 10 (and 8.1).

Oh, thanks. Well, then that was how mine was fixed. My PC has an Intel Core i3 with integrated Intel HD Graphics.

Did you try and google the problem? Because I found the answer right away by doing that.

It's most likely a driver issue, mostly has to do with older Intel igpu's and 32 bit Windows. Update your gpu drivers and see if it goes away.
