Summary0015169: volume rendering error on local Windows 7 x64, AMD Radeon 5450/6350, OpenGL 4.4
DescriptionUsing both ParaView 4.2 and 4.2.0-97-g33e1c33 64-bit I encounter a volume rendering error when walking through Exercise 2.14 of the tutorial book ParaviewTutorial42:

open disk_out_ref.ex2
select all variables
apply
Coloring -> Temp
Representation -> Volume

ERROR: In C:\DBD\pvs-x64\paraview\src\paraview\VTK\Rendering\VolumeOpenGL\vtkOpenGLProjectedTetrahedraMapper.cxx, line 188
vtkOpenGLProjectedTetrahedraMapper (000000001581A8E0): The required extensions are not supported.

This problem occurs on a local server. Additional details:
OpenGL 6.14.10.13084 (According to AMD Catalyst Control Center)
OpenGL 4.4 (According to OpenGL Extensions Viewer)

 Hi David,

here is my find for this issue:

issue 1: vtk disable AMD hw rendering in vtkOpenGLProjectedTetrahedraMapper::IsSupported(vtkRenderWindow *rwin)
{
  ...
  // exclude ATI Radeon HD, except on Apple, because there seems to
  // be a bug in ATI's legacy fixed function texturing support in recent
  // drivers. The Radeon HD cards are identified here by the OpenGL version
  // because the renderer string is inconsistent across platforms.
  // win7 RHD5800, win7 RHD6750M, Linux RHD7870 all exhibit the bug.
  bool driverSupport
  #if defined(__APPLE__)
    = true;
  #else
    = !(extensions->DriverIsATI()
    && (extensions->GetDriverGLVersionMajor() >= 3))
    || extensions->GetIgnoreDriverBugs("ATI texturing bug");
  #endif

  return texSupport && driverSupport;
}

issue 2: the mentioned texturing bug in issue 1 is:
void vtkOpenGLProjectedTetrahedraMapper::Render(vtkRenderer *renderer,
                                                vtkVolume *volume)
{
…
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_INTENSITY, TEXRES, TEXRES, 1, GL_RED,
                 GL_FLOAT, texture);
…
}
the 6th parameter 'border’ of glTexImage2D must be 0 according to opengl spec. But it is set 1 in vtkOpenGLProjectedTetrahedraMapper::Render now.

I think after resolving these issues, volume rendering will work on AMD card.
