Since the water filter is working now, why do you still need OpenGL3?
As I mentioned before, jME3 uses OpenGL extensions internally instead of OpenGL3, so enabling it doesn’t give you anything.
Okay, now I know that its all right 
thanks for your help. It is important to know whats going on for being confident while using any framework.
If there is no bc profile on osx i assume osx currently does not support geometry and tessllation shaders?
Can’t test since i don’t have access to a mac, would be good to know in any case. @normen, could you try the geo + tess tests?
OSX supports OpenGL 4.1 (on Macs that are not too old) so there are support for geometry and tesselation shaders. It’s just that OSX doesn’t support bc profile for OGL 3.x.
OSX supports, its true, though to have an access to opengl 3-4 features you have to do some magic, which doesn’t work in jme at the moment. As I was told above, there is no need to use opengl 3-4. On my mac with jmonkey 3.1 latest build I have opengl 2.1 with glsl 1.20.
I just pushed a bunch of changes which should provides much better support for core profile. Certain features that jME3 uses still require compatibility though, like luminance / alpha textures. You can try it and see if anything improves…

Thank you, its a really nice to get a real help here =)
I’ve tried to run my code (which runs good before I pull your changes) and it crashes now (with default renderer settings). I also tried to set opengl3 renderer and my code also crashed =)) but! it successfully initialized with opengl 4.1 version heh =) My code fails on sky map initializing. Here is my exception for enabled LWJGL_OPENGL3 setting:

So OpenGL2.1 will work again now.
As for OpenGL3.2+ support, it seems we have no choice but to port our shaders to GLSL 1.5+ as that’s the only thing that is compatible. GLSL 1.1 shaders are not supported anymore once a core profile is requested.

Thanks! I’ve just checked my scene and found out that post water looks bit weird =) at the border of the screen where water is there is some strange effect…

Thanks, works fine.
Hi,
I’m trying to run Unshaded.j3md on OpenGL3 (I used a mac on train). I converted existing .frag and .vert to GLSL150. And I tried to adapt Unshaded.j3md
MaterialDef Advanced Unshaded {
MaterialParameters {
...
}
Technique {
VertexShader GLSL100: Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.vert
FragmentShader GLSL100: Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.frag
...
}
Technique {
VertexShader GLSL150: Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded15.vert
FragmentShader GLSL150: Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded15.frag
...
}
...
}
But my test app always failed with error like if it load version GLSL 100 version.
com.jme3.renderer.RendererException: compile error in: ShaderSource[name=Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.frag, defines, type=Fragment, language=GLSL100]

How to setup a Material Definition to provide GLSL110 and GLSL150 version ?
(I used jmonkeyengine master from 2 days ago).
Just a guess in the wild, what happens if you revert the ordering? Like defining GLSL150 before GLSL100?
