he everyone.
I would want to know if to someone of you it has problems to use the
bumpmapping and .fx shader with DarkGame SDK.
I have tried more times to compile examples converted from DarkBasic
Professional in Visual C++.net 2003 but I do not succeed to see nothing, also using the shaders I do not obtain no result.
Some examples I have taken them from the forum and you are converted, but nothing, while all it works well in DarkBasic Professional.
Someone could say me why?

Example from [DarkBASIC Professional DiscussionThe Ultimate Shader Thread 2.0]

DBPRO:


DGSDK:




My specs:
CPU: OPTERON 242x2
MEMORY: DDR400 512MBx2
VIDEO CARD: GeForce 6800GT 256MB DDR3
OS: Windows XP x32-Bit and Windows XP x64-Bit

I believe it has been decided the fx loader is bugged. I think it is somewhere in the DarkSDK bug thread. And if it isnt, it should be!

Also I task therefore, I only hope that team TGC lets out soon update otherwise all the things that render particular DarkGame SDK respect to other 3D engine, without they will be meant, if they cannot be used. It is useless to have a powerful product in appearance and then not to be able to use it if every time that is wanted to be used an particular effect blocks the program or nothing is not looked at on the screen.

I agree, shaders bug should be nº 1 in fixing list in my opinion.

I just bought DGSDK and discovered this problem, my project uses several shaders and they are not going to work!

danat:It would be better if you post your code and state the problem in an email to TGC (mike@thegamecreators.com) so they can sort it out in bug week.

Another option is to just write your own shader loader. I think thats the nicest thing about DGSDK, you can rewrite something if it is bugged or doesnt work exactly the way you want. Where as with DBPro, you are screwed until it gets fixed unless you make a plugin. However I would much rather not have to rewrite something thats supposed to work.

I posted the bug to the bug post last month. I am currently going to start trying to access the device, dx9's shaderfx framework, and use that to run my .fx files.. it's going to take some serious hacks.. but for now it's worth a shot.
