shaders

Hey all. So I'm working on an outline method where I sample a surface texture of a couple of sprites and send that through a basic outline shader and basically clear and repeat. So far it works well, but there's a tiny outline of my sprites being created even when they're both being drawn onto...

Hi, I've run into a strange issue with my project, created with GMS 1.4: some Windows 10 Pro 64 bit PCs can't compile GLSL ES/HLSL 9 shaders. First I check shaders_are_supported() and get 'true' as a response on both PCs. Then I do shader_is_compiled() for both shaders (GLSL ES and HLSL 9)...

I have been battling with the shadows in my games for quite a while now and can't seem to do this myself, I want to have shadows for each object, in the shape of their object, and using a different color based on the color behind the shadow (to fit with the color palette) I am very new to...

Hello GameMakers, I am a programmer in the small team of 2 soundmakers artist and me. Together we are developing game called "The Bottom". As I don't want to make this post too long I will not explain all the Lore and Game World here, instead I will combine a few words with my Final Draft...

Re-Edited post to get to the point. Gamemaker Studio 2 IDE version: v2.2.5.481 Runtime Version: v2.2.5.378 Platform: Windows This script below, I believe interferes with ANY shader when used together(could be due to old code - minor alterations from this script: Click Here) I've narrowed it...

Hey everyone, I'm trying to show a sprite on the place that it collides only. This way I can create a type of shadow from one planet on top of the planets underneath: The shadow is created by showing the same sprite, making it black and lowering the alpha. Screenshot: Hopefully, someone...

So I am not very familiar with shaders but I have watched and read most neccesary tutorials to understand how they work. I need my shader for drawing laser weapon aim. The laser weapon needs to be charged before shooting, this is why I want my aim to show the current charge by filling the inside...

I am trying to make a game in GameMaker 2 where objects become transparent depending on the object behind them. I currently have it so I am just checking each step (within the object to become transparent) whether in contact with the background object and then setting alpha to 0.5 if true. Here...

I've 8 shaders in my project so far, used to have 2 more that I wasnt using anymore so I deleted them, on the next compile, rendering was messed up. it's a 3d project and I'm using couple of surfaces as FBO's and I've bind some keys to save them for me. I've the file they're saved in open in my...

I've followed Shaun Spalding's tutorial at youtube[dot]com/watch?v=zWrpHbc6fmc, which basically sets up a one-pixel outline for sprites using shaders. Currently, the outline is black. How do I change this? I've tried messing with gl_FragColor but it either messes up the transparency (no longer...

I recently purchased GM:S 2 with plans to make a 2d-3d hybrid game for Windows. For the 3d portion I would need high-performance 3D dynamic height maps as I'd like to maximize rendering speed. Rendering a static heightmap is no issue for me, but I want it dynamic. I experimented with shaders...

Hi, I have found tutorials for lighting up a certain object, to make the room around them darker and a small area around an object brighter, but I can't find anything regarding areas of the room, like coordinates. My goal is to have a lighting system like Enter the Gungeon, where if the player...

So I am making a little platformer with my nephew (trying to get him into programming; he seems to have a liking for it.) And I am using shaders and surfaces within a single room at the moment, but I am noticing that the shader seems to also affect the surface making for some let's just say...

I have this bow sprite and I want to make it look like the enchanted tools in minecraft. I have no idea how to go about this with shaders. Desired effect: https://gph.is/1w1s1of

Download: https://github.com/GengoStar/HideGMShaders/releases Github: https://github.com/GengoStar/HideGMShaders Versions: GM:S2 Maybe youve already heard of this, but GM:S2 stores your shaders in plain text inside win files, making them easy to extract for anyone interested Turns out that the...

[RESOLVED] Hi! I'm trying to create a day-night cycle for my game. I plan to do this by using a shader to change the color of a transparent sprite that stretches across the whole room. Though for now, I'm only trying to pass in a uniform value that I'll use for the color. My code is: In the...

If I have an empty project with a simple shader: // // Simple passthrough fragment shader // varying vec2 v_vTexcoord; varying vec4 v_vColour; void main() { float two = 2.; gl_FragColor = v_vColour * texture2D( gm_BaseTexture, v_vTexcoord ) * two; } And I then compile it to a zip - I...

I have a vision cone sprite that enemies use to signify their field of view. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that when a part of the sprite is overlapping with another sprite, that part is not drawn. Basically like a spotlight, where the light would stop where a solid object is. Any...

Hi I am having problems with my lighting ( still ;_; ) I kinda thought It was working ok, but looking closer I can see problems. This link shows the surface_light https://imgur.com/a/7i020P0 However as you can see. There are these weird black lines that intrude on the light. Ignore the...

Heya SamplerCubes are a GLSL feature that allows you to group 6 2D textures together to form a cube (1 texture for each face). You can then use GLSL's textureCube function with a directional vector to grab a color from inside the cube. Usually in order to use the textureCube function, the user...
