This is a question I've had for aaages, but I haven't been able to find a proper answer. These days, a lot of engines have material shaders that have incredible complexity, often using node-based editors. While not trivial, it seems pretty straightforward how these can be turned into compiled pixel

I've been working on a silly little deformation shader to make the inside of the portals a bit more interesting.As ever, you need to see it

Following sirob's prompting, I dropped the BasicEffect for rendering and rolled my own effect. After seeing the things that could be done wi

Hey guys, been a while since I posted here.The reason behind this post is that I decided to challenge myself to implement a system similar t

im just curious, Do I really need to Study shaders in DX to make a cool game? Im having a hard time looking for some tutorials on how to implements shaders in DX

Hi, I am relatively new to shader programming. Could anyone give me some links for tutorials on: -Implementing shaders in OpenGL -ARB Vertex shaders -ATI Text Fragment shaders Thanks.

A few days ago my MDX book arrived. Managed DirectX 9 Graphics and Game Programming.I've been reading it thoroughly. I was really surprised

Hi, I am not so far with shader programming, but I wonder how people apply shader-materials to models for their engines and games. I mean models which were exported from 3D Studio Max or Maya. I remember that Crytek (they made Far Cry) has a plug-in for Max and Maya to apply normal maps onto

Hi gamedev community. I was read the book "Introduction to 3D Game Programming with DirectX 9.0c." (Frank Luna) and the 3 finals chapters have HLSL and shaders. Now I like to learn shaders, I need a book: What book do you recommend me? The money isn't a problem. (1) "ShaderX2: Introduction and tuto

i've noticed that in the very near future, i'm going to have to learn to work with shaders(Directx 10, openGL 3) and i'm wondering, does anyone know of a good place to start? thanks
