Chrome is the preferred browser for EyeWire. It is the most stable browser that works with WebGL.

Check if Your Browser Supports WebGL

Click on the following link, http://get.webgl.org It will tell you whether or not WebGL is enabled on your computer. Hopefully you will get something like the image below, if so, you're all set to start playing EyeWire.

Other Messages

If you get the following message:

File:Browser doesnt support webgl.png

It means you need to follow the link below the message, or go here https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/ to update to the newest version of Chrome. After you've updated, restart your browser and try again.


If you receice the message or something similar:

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

It means you'll need to configure your browser to enable WebGL.

Configure your Browser

Type "about:gpu" in the address bar and check the Graphics Feature Status tab at the top of the page. It should look like this:

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

If it does not look like the image above, type "about:flags" into the address bar.

You will get a scary warning that looks like this:
