I am trying to install PyOpenGL using pip on Windows 10.
I have tried to install it using pip install PyOpenGL and it tells me that it has installed it successfully but when
Go to Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages
Download a 32 bit or 64 bit package for PyOpenGL provides bindings to OpenGL, GLUT, and GLE
(e.g.
PyOpenGL-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl and
PyOpenGL_accelerate-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl)
Open Command Prompt (cmd.exe) as administrator. Change to the download directory and install the packages by pip install packagename.whl
.
e.g:
pip install PyOpenGL-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
and
pip install PyOpenGL_accelerate-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
If the package is already installed, but doesn't work, then you have to ignore the currently installed package, by the option --ignore-installed
:
pip install --ignore-installed PyOpenGL-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
pip install --ignore-installed PyOpenGL_accelerate-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
