The T3D allows to use their own shader in a much simpler way of CryEngine allows. Unfortunately, over time, are made important cuts in the custom materials system, that make use of shaders written ad hoc. So should you be a little more precise. Talk about shaders in screenspace, but then say you have problems to apply per object shaders.
