The following are the minimum system requirements for Cape Pack. Exceeding these requirements will, in most cases, lead to a performance increase. Running Cape Pack on a system that does not meet these requirements is not supported.
System Requirement for Web Application
These are the requirements to use the web-based part of Cape Pack 22. See EskoCloud for Security or hosting related information.
Browser
You need a desktop (Windows or Mac OS X) version of any of the following browsers. It is strongly recommended that you use the latest version. However, version numbers greater than those shown below should work:
Firefox 40+
Safari 8+
Chrome 42+
Edge
Internet
A broadband internet connection is required.
The Cape Pack web application cannot be used offline.
3D Graphics Hardware
Cape Pack uses a 3D technology called WebGL to allow 3D graphics to be displayed in your browser. For this to work, you need a recent 3D graphics card (look for confirmation that your card supports WebGL) and you may also need to explicitly enable WebGL in your browser.
It is also important that you update the drivers for your graphics card to the latest version.
To enable WebGL in your browser, see here: http://superuser.com/questions/836832/how-can-i-enable-webgl-in-my-browser or contact the Esko Support for more in-depth assistance.
In some cases, your GPU may be blacklisted by your browser. Please refer to: https://www.khronos.org/webgl/wiki/BlacklistsAndWhitelists for more information.
3D viewing may not work correctly on virtual machines due to the use of GPU emulation. For best results, ensure the VM emulates a non black listed GPU if possible.
