About to install and update to 4.10 but i can't recall.....does anything else need updating when you do that? The default shaders/lights or any plug ins need updating?

    Update video card driver and OpenCL runtime for your CPU.

    @Jakiblue- did you see my Art Studio thread? It really screwed up my studio! I didn't realize I was installing it in DIM, as I had a lot of things to install. Or I certainly WOULDN'T have done it. So how do I get this stupid thing fixed? It's still showing 4.9 at the top, and the opening page is still the 4.9 graphic. Edit- see post below. Reinstalled and is fine.

    @Novica

    Studio has updated while it was still open and running so it shows up white. Reinstalling it should correct it. It is a new install of the next public build so it replaces 4.9 with the new one which is 4.10.

    Allows you to run OpenCL simulations using your CPU. If you have an Intel processor, get it here. https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/opencl-drivers

    This is optional.

    I have an old ATI Radeon card which I don't think supports openCL. Does anyone know if it's possible to run openCL through CPU instead of GPU?

    Thanks a lot,

    Martha

    I got that same message too. It confused and concerned me too. So I googled my graphics card name and unfortunately got conflicting reports on weather or not it supports openCL. I figure I'll just try out 4.10 next week and if it doesn't work, I'll roll back to 4.9 since I always keep installers.

    I haven't tried dforce yet because I am very afraid of that openCL thing telling me to uninstall my driver.  Should I do this?  What did you end up doing @zombietaggerung?
