hi,

in which version can I use shaders? Or can that every version?

I'm having the problems that both Rhuarc and Ranger1 had with this shader on a Radeon 9200. I've recently tried this demo on a computer with a Radeon 9200 and recieve similar pixelation that there is in the picture Rhuarc posted. It works fine on my Radeon 9800 at home... Do you have any idea why its doing this Steempipe?

Steempipe, why is that your shader reflect sprites as grey color?

Is there a way to get rid of this pixelated effect on ATI Radeon 9200's?
It looks absolutely terrible on my 9200.

Also would it be possile to change this to work on level blocks?
I'd like to have a fallback technique to where if this shader isn't supported by the users card it just displays the water level blocks turbulence texture.

Steempipe I hope you are around cause I am down to 3 days and I am hoping you can help me. I got this code working looks great for water, but I really need to get some controlable transparency. I tried using the alpha channel of the bumpmap which does work by adding mov r0.w, t0.w in the asm for the pixel shader.

Problem with this is that the bump map is moving which makes the alpha map move as well so the transparency doesn't stay in place. So my question is how can I get this to work staying within VS and PS 1.1.

I just changed Out.Bump = (float2(IN.Bump.x+cos_x, IN.Bump.y+sin_y)* RippleScale)*0.2;
to
Out.Bump = (float2(IN.Bump.x+cos_x, IN.Bump.y+sin_y)* RippleScale)*2.2;
.
Now I have more ripples, but what should I change, that the water moves slower (its very fast;D).
Thanks, Reaver.

my.skill41 = float(ShaderCount);
my.skill42 = float(0);
my.skill43 = float(0);
my.skill44 = float(0);
ShaderCount += 0.001;

changing this in the action for the water will adjust the speed that the uv coordinates are being shifted
