[MC-233192] Mass Spam Of Open GL errors in Minecraft

I keep getting spammed like crazy with this Opel GL message:
OpenGL debug message, id=1280, source=API, type=ERROR, severity=HIGH, message=Error has been generated. GL error GL_INVALID_ENUM in (null): (ID: 173538523) Generic error

And this is causing quite a headache. In MC versions 1.14 and above, when it's just about to load the main menu, the "Minecraft Game Output" gets barraged with that error. And IDK why it's doing it, and how to fix it. I uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times, I updated my graphics drivers last night, and I've run Malware scans. It all worked as a temporary fix, but it's back to spam again after a while. Java is up to date. I removed my resource packs. It still gave the error. Not to mention, this blows my CPU up to max, cause it spams it every frame in-game, and quite often, just by being in the main menu, discord ends up losing connection/crashes altogether. And it doesn't matter if I have Optifine or not. This issue started out of the blue on the 23rd. I think there's something wrong, but IDK. Because all the help I've gotten only fixes it temporarily. I hope someone helps me get a permanent fix to this.

Hm, same error as MC-228532, does that match your issue?

Adam James Switzer 2021-07-27T16:21:56Z

Doesn't quite match. Similar, but not an exact match. Only the **OpenGL debug message, id=1280, source=API, type=ERROR, severity=HIGH, message part matches, then mine has an extra set of words before the GL_INVALID_ENUM part.
I was running Pure unmodified Vanilla 1.14 through 1.17, the latest versions of each, and while In the main menu, I saw the log spam.

Any updates?
Cause I'm still getting this error on 1.14 and Above.

Update:

I think it's been fixed as It was a JAVA error somehow causing it.

I'll keep looking out for a bit if this comes back.

Error Is back. Added a new attachment to something I saw that threw red flags like the instance before I ran the instance that blew up with that Damn error. And another one before the spam error instance

This time, the 1.17.1 instance was the first with it.

i am actually currently having the same issue. and the issue he's having is exact. and 100% identical to the issue I'm having

MCGamer20000 2021-11-25T23:17:41Z

I was experiencing these exact errors spamming my log with Overwolf / Curseforge app installed and running. Likely the same issue as MC-228532.

Adam James Switzer 2021-11-26T00:42:15Z

I wonder if it's a Java screw-up or something.

The errors MAY have stopped, but I'm gonna keep my eyes on it if the errors return and report back asap.

Louise Dibbs 2021-12-03T11:23:22Z

I am also having the exact same error messages spammed whenever I open Minecraft on my computer

Adam James Switzer 2022-05-03T15:16:23Z

now only 1.17+ is hit, and suppression helps not at all.

I've even reset my OF settings. NOPE

Just found out my friend has this spam of the logs.

Adam James Switzer 2022-05-04T11:55:44Z

I THINK I KNOW WHY!!!
Having the curseforge app ACTIVE while running Minecraft produced the spam!

I launched MC without curse/overwolf running. Then While in-game, I turned curse on, AND BOOM!

Hello,

I seem to be having this issue on the latest Minecraft version (Minecraft 1.20.4). I am playing with mods, which may have something to do with it, but I'm not sure. I've uploaded a screenshot of the message spam. Hoping this gets fixed!

darkeforge 2024-01-31T01:50:47Z

Can concur, OpenGL spam is happening due to the Overwolf client, likely due to a bug in the FTBA/Curseforge Overwolf app.

brezik.ad 2024-06-01T07:56:17Z

I'm having this in 1.20.1 with Fabric loader, so... This is not related directly to Overwolf. Got Intel Arc GA and their current official drivers.

kelianor 2024-06-01T10:41:48Z

@brezik.ad is it still an issue in 1.20.6 vanilla? 1.20.1 has been released almost a year ago so some things might have been changed since then.

wobst.michael 2024-06-02T13:02:08Z

Please check if this is still an issue in the most recent version of vanilla Minecraft.

Casey8127 2024-09-13T11:38:08Z

Here is a solution: Go to "options.txt" and set glDebugVerbosity to 0. This option will disable any OpenGL debug messages, which means these errors will still be there, but no spam anymore.
Suggestion to Mojang: Let this option default to 0.
