Hi @ all!
Could someone explain to me,how to bind this template-postprocessing-shader into a game? Lot's of thanks!

pp_set(mtl_monochrome,camera);

you need to include mtlView.c in your project.(not sure)

Hm,that seems only to work with C-Lite.But thanks!

The Problem is fixed with the help of a friend and it works fine with A7com!
You have to write into your mainscript:

SW_camera_Init();//Init the effect
PP_Toggle_OnOff();//Show the effect

into a included script you write:

////////////////////////////////////////// Monochrome////////////////////////////////////////////
material Monochrome_mat
{
effect = "monochrome.fx";
}

view SW_camera
{

}

entity PP_Quad
{
type = <PPE_Quad.tga>;
layer = 1;
view = camera;

x = 878;
y = 0;
z = 0;

scale_x = 1;
scale_y = 1;
flags=visible;
}

function PP_Init_startup()
{
SW_camera.bmap = bmap_for_entity(PP_Quad,0);
SW_camera.arc=60;
SW_camera.clip_far=100000;
}

function SW_camera_Init()
{
PP_Quad.material = Monochrome_mat;
}


function PP_Toggle_OnOff()
{
if(PP_Quad.visible == on)
{
SW_camera.visible = off;
PP_Quad.visible = off;
}else
{
SW_camera.visible = on;
PP_Quad.visible = on;

while(PP_Quad.visible == on)
{
vec_set(SW_camera.x,camera.x);
vec_set(SW_camera.pan,camera.pan);
wait(1);
}
}
}

on_t = PP_Toggle_OnOff;

For the "entity PP_Quad" you need a white tga-bitmap 1024*768!This Bitmap and the
monochrome.fx-file has to be in your gamefolder!
I think,other postprocessing-effects will also work with it,but I didn't test it until now.

This does of course work with single shaders. I recomment you to use the Lite-C stages and include some Lite-C code next to your C-Script lines. It is so much more flexible and you do Not have to care about changing resolutions.

You are right and I will learn C-Lite,when I finished my projekt!During a work I never do a Gs-update or change the Script-language.

Can someone fix the colour bug using the monochrome shader?The bug appears on all models that use bumpmapping.



Thats the bump-effect:

extern texture entSkin1;
extern texture entSkin2;
extern texture entSkin3;
extern texture entSkin4;
extern texture mtlSkin1;
extern texture mtlSkin2;
extern texture mtlSkin3;
extern texture mtlSkin4;

extern float4x4 matMtl;
extern float4x4 matViewInv;

technique untitled //Author: unknown
{
pass p0
{
//TEXTURE STAGE [0]
Texture[0] = <entSkin2>;
ColorOp[0] = DotProduct3;
//TEXTURE STAGE [1]
Texture[1] = <entSkin1>;
ColorOp[1] = Modulate;
}
};

That's the monochrome:

extern texture entSkin1;
extern texture entSkin2;
extern texture entSkin3;
extern texture entSkin4;
extern texture mtlSkin1;
extern texture mtlSkin2;
extern texture mtlSkin3;
extern texture mtlSkin4;

extern float4x4 matMtl;
extern float4x4 matViewInv;

technique untitled //Author: unknown
{
pass p0
{
//TEXTURE STAGE [0]
Texture[0] = <entSkin2>;
ColorOp[0] = DotProduct3;
//TEXTURE STAGE [1]
Texture[1] = <entSkin1>;
ColorOp[1] = Modulate;
}
};

Those are both not the monochrome effect :P
If you are using postprocessing for the monochrome effect, objectshaders can´t have any impact on it, or at least that is the case if everything works as it is meant to...

Sorry,I selected the wrong shader!I solved the problem with a 3.texture,witch is monochrom.By toggle to monochrom-modus, I change skin0 to skin2.That works fine!



Thats the monochrom:

texture entSkin1;

sampler postTex = sampler_state
{
texture = (entSkin1);
MinFilter = linear;
MagFilter = linear;
MipFilter = linear;
AddressU = Clamp;
AddressV = Clamp;
};

float4 Monochrom_PS(float2 tex : TEXCOORD0) : COLOR
{
float4 Color = tex2D(postTex,tex);

Color.rgb = (Color.r+Color.g+Color.b)/3.0f;

return Color;
}

technique tech_00
{
pass pass_00
{
VertexShader = null;
PixelShader = compile ps_2_0 Monochrom_PS();
}
}

technique tech_01
{
pass pass_00
{
Texture[0] = <entSkin1>;
}
}

but now there are stars in front of the planet.
