Textures in custom shader feature
by David Zboray · in Torque 3D Beginner · 12/03/2010 (4:34 pm) · 0 replies
We are attempting to create an object that has a surface rendered through a custom, multi-pass rendering process that will involve at least one render-to-texture intermediary stage. We are attempting to use ShaderFeatures for this but we are encountering a number of difficulties stemming from my lack of understanding of torque's "ShaderGen" system and how textures are assigned, loaded, bound, etc.
The immediate issue is that we want to assign a new texture attribute to our shaderFeature, that can be set by putting a filename entry into the appropriate materials.cs file, but we have not found a smooth way of doing this.
We are using Torque 3D 2009 SDK 1.0.1 on Windows 7.
Any help is appreciated.
