freeglut error about deepmimic HOT 6 CLOSED

Sorry not sure what could be causing this. Maybe look to make sure that glut is properly initialized?

Thanks for reply.
I did a bit digging. The only two places where glutInit gets called are
void cDrawUtil::InitOffscreenDrawContext()
and
void InitDraw(int argc, char** argv)

But both functions seem not being called by python via DeepMimicCore. I put prints in both functions and neither print showed up. Shouldn't one of them be called somewhere down the process?

Ok, I solved the problem by commenting out glutPostRedisplay() call in function
void cDeepMimicCore::Reshape(int w, int h)
Not sure the consequence of this change.
Both tests run fine now.

i think getting rid of the redisplay call in reshape is probably ok. It just means that the rendering won't refresh as promptly when reshaping the windows, which should be a fairly minor inconvenience.

I found it puzzling that any call to glut within DeepMimicCore will cause freeglut to complain with glutInit error. Here is another case: right click while dragging the mouse (pan the camera) will crash with the same error. This time it is the glutGetModifiers() call in cCamera:: MouseMove(). Again the solution is to disable glut call. I have to pass modifier key via python interface and this involves modifying several files.

I don't know whether the problem is specific to my system environment (Win10, VS 2017, Winpython 3.6, freeglut 3.0.0) or not. If anyone encounters this, I could submit a PR.

Thanks for the help and discussion. Nice work and appreciated the code sharing.

BTW, any plan to release the SFV code?

we haven't decided on a code release for SFV yet.
