Hi@all!
Ok I've got the following code (by Steempipe) working and set to go:
Code:

---

technique drawWater
{
	pass p0
	{
		AlphaBlendEnable = true;
		ZwriteEnable = true;
		ZEnable = true;
		Sampler[0] = (s_Bump);
		Sampler[3] = (s_Cube);
		PixelShaderConstant[0] = float4(0.3,0.4,vecSkill1.x,0.75);
		VertexShader = compile vs_1_1 WaterBump_VS();
		PixelShader =
		asm
		{
			ps.1.1
			tex t0
			texm3x3pad t1, t0_bx2
			texm3x3pad t2, t0_bx2
			texm3x3vspec t3, t0_bx2
			mul r0, t3, c0
		};
	}
}

---

The question now is: How could I tell the pixelshader to accept vecSkill1 - 4 in the PixelShaderConstant[0] declaration? Strangely, it actually does accept the skills, but only one at a time, be it r,g,b or alpha. Any of the shader gurus who knows how to do this, any help is appreciated...
