I was having a problem loading the shaders (greyscale.dbs)
when using the dbLoadCameraEffect api.

Here's the problem.

If you do this:
dbShaderDataStart(); <= this will execute ok.
dbLoadCameraEffect("Greyscale.dbs",1,0); <=this will fail and will show the following dialog:
(Error loading camera effect ‘Greyscale.dbs’)

The solution is to open the dbs file and find any references to "compile vs_1_1" and "compile ps_1_1" and change those to "compile vs_2_0" and "compile_ps_2_0"

Thanks to Michael Johnson at TGC for suggesting this fix.

Even though it complains that it cannot find the file, it really should have displayed a dialog that the shader is not a supported version.
