#5, In GL 3.0. RGB32F is color-renderable for texture-only. It is not color-renderable for renderbuffer. But we do use A TEXTURE with RGB32F as color-attachment and then check the framebuffer attachment, it says framebuffer incomplete on Intel mesa driver. It is OK for Intel Windows GL driver and Intel MacOS GL driver. It's also OK for NVIDIA and AMD (Windows, MacOS, Linux, etc). For this statement to check framebuffer completeness below: """ Required Framebuffer Formats Implementations must support framebuffer objects with up to MAX COLOR ATTACHMENTS color attachments, a depth attachment, and a stencil attachment. Each color attachment may be in any of the required color formats for textures and renderbuffers described in sections 3.9.1 and 4.4.2. """ My understanding is that the color formats for a color attachment should be color-renderable for a texture, or color-renderable for a renderbuffer. It is not required that the color format should be color-renderable both for a texture and a renderbuffer. If you attach a texture with a color-renderable format, that format is not color-renderable for a renderbuffer (like RGB32F), it doesn't matter. This is A TEXTURE, not a renderbuffer. There is no reason that we need to go through renderbuffer's color-renderable formats for a texture. In short, this statements says that color attachment should be attached an image which is color-renderable, no matter it is a texture or a renderbuffer. In addition, why you say "GL_RGB32F is marked as color-renderable, but not required to be renderable"? My understanding is that, a format is color-renderable (or depth-renderable, or stencil renderable), it must be renderable. But a color-renderable format for texture is not guaranteed to be color-renderable for renderbuffer. Let's discuss this issue from a different perspective. You know, for a texture, it has 2 main usage: 1) sample (or read) from a texture, 2) draw (or write) to a texture. If a format is color-renderable for a texture, but we can't attach it to a FB/FBO, I don't know how could we draw into this kind of texture. As a result, it makes no sense that we say it is color-renderable. So I think attaching a color-renderable format to a fbo should be valid. But for same other formats which is used only for sampling from a texture, it can be not renderable. That formats can't be attached to a fbo and used as a render target. However, RGB32F is claimed as color-renderable in OpenGL. So texture with this format can be rendered into without error. For a renderbuffer, It is mainly used to draw. We can't sample from a renderbuffer (although we can call readpixel to read AFTER you draw something). So all formats for a renderbuffer should be renderable (color-renderable, depth-renderable, etc). Please correct me if I am wrong. Any other comments are welcome too.
