OpenGL 1.3 on iMac G4 700 MHz running MacOS X 10.4.11

Morning.

I want to install and play Glest on an iMac G4 700 MHz running MacOS X 10.4.11. The machine is equipped with a Geforce MX-2. This hardware normally does not support OpenGL 1.3. I do not know whether it's necessary to have a hardware that supports OpenGL 1.3 or thats sufficiant to have OpenGL 1.3 installed.

Therefore: (How) can I install OpenGL 1.3 on this machine?

TIA and kind regards, Friedrich

Yes. I did. And I've found a lot of stuff from programmers, a page by Apple explaining that the Geforce MX2 does support OpenGL 1.1, but no user friendly answer, whether it works or not and how to install OpenGL on a iMac G4 700 running MacOS X 10.4.11.

Kind regards, Friedrich
