yeah, will run under c-script too, but you need the commercial version if you use a6...a7 supports shader for every version

Hey Scorpion,

I am finally getting around to trying that code. I'm totally unfamiliar with shaders and I may be doing something wrong. Is the shader code supposed to go in a separate file or something? I cannot get the shader code to compile under A6.60 or A7 (both Pro version). It doesn't recognize those Float4x4 data types, for one thing.

Thanks.

yeah, you have to use it in an *.fx file and add it to a material by writing



(but that i did already in the given code)

OK, thanks for that. This helped me determine that there is some Lite-C only code in main(), and my game is using C-Script. I'll have to try it with my free Lite-C version.

OK, I have tried it with Lite-C, but I still can't make it compile. Here's the error:



No matter what I do, it doesn't seem to recognize the MATERIAL structure. Any ideas?

did you included acknex.h ?

OK, different error message, but the problem is still with that Material declaration. Weird, huh? This is the material part:

MATERIAL* circleMtl =
 {
  effect="circle.fx";
 }

and this is the error:

Editions below commerical, doesnt support shader right?

They do.
But just FFE.

So maybe that's the problem. The free Lite-C version doesn't support this kind of shader? I will try to run this with full A7 later tonight. Thanks for everybody's help in diagnosing this.
