Hi,

Does anyone here know how to apply camera shaders in Dark Basic Professional? How can I apply a "post" camera shader to the default camera?

Thnx!

2. ways:
1. set camera effect command
2. Create a plain object, set effect to it, position it in front of the camera every frame

but there is no documentation on that "command"?? (if there is such a command)
Do I need to update to a more recent version of DBP to use that? I am running V1.07 which is installed from the DGS disc.

there's is such a command, it is highlighted in my editor, should be in your's too. Yes, there's no documentation on it. It was part of dark shader, i believe, and was later added to dbpro.

I don't know, probably not. If it is highlighted then you hav ethe correct version.

To find out what is the syntax just type it in the editor without parameters and compile, you'll get an error saying whats wrong and that way you will know the needed parameters

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? I have been at this almost 24 hours now.
I am trying to apply a bloom effect camera shader.

I am using the default camera but haven't the slightest idea what is going on as there is no documentation for this particular subject.

I just looked through my folders and found this:

It has been a very long time since I apparently created this file so I am not sure exactly where the info came from, but I would have to assume here on the forums...

Post your code and someone might be able to help.

Edit Have a look at the "BloomWithDarkShader" project in your Projects/Snippets folder.
