This is the default render setting used by the engine:

Models, sprites, and flat textures:

SetTexture(0,Skin);
SetTextureStageState(0,D3DTSS_COLOROP,D3DTOP_MODULATE2X);
SetTextureStageState(0,D3DTSS_COLORARG1,D3DTA_TEXTURE); // entity texture
SetTextureStageState(0,D3DTSS_COLORARG2,D3DTA_DIFFUSE); // lighting

works great! even has proper lighting in shadows...

here is the code, with action and material (for shader newbies like me)

Code:

Hi, I copied this code and apparently can't get it to work.



any idea why i get this error? (and yes, if you haven't guessed, I'm quite the noob)

MATERIAL bumpmap
{
   effect= 
   "
   matrix matWorldViewProj;
