Describe your issue here

I'm trying to make SFML port for MultiCraft. Currently it works fine on Linux, however I have some issues when trying to make it working on Android.

It looks that EGL context is not created. Then it fails to compile shaders and crashes on some opengl related functions (on MultiCraft side).

From logcat:

[2025-06-02 21:44:39.554 Uid(value=10560):4698:4698 W/libEGL]
Couldn't find an OpenGL ES implementation from

and later

You can find the SFML port here
https://github.com/deveee/Irrlicht/tree/SFML
https://github.com/deveee/MultiCraft/tree/SFML
https://github.com/deveee/deps_android/tree/SFML

The most relevant part is
https://github.com/deveee/Irrlicht/blob/SFML/source/Irrlicht/CIrrDeviceSFML.cpp
and the Android project
https://github.com/deveee/MultiCraft/tree/SFML/Android

Also note that we use custom native activity, maybe it matters
https://github.com/deveee/MultiCraft/blob/SFML/Android/app/src/main/java/com/multicraft/game/GameActivity.kt

It fails to start on several different phones, so it's not a bug in system/drivers. I tried gles1, using RenderWindow, different context creation settings, shared/static linking etc. and it seems that it is unrelated.

Any idea what can be wrong? Tbh. I'm not sure if I missed something or if it's a problem with SFML EGL context creation.
