Then you probably shouldn't be doing it in the first place until there's a better implementation, which would likely have to come from/be facilitated by Badspot.

i assume this is more taxing on your hardware than regular shaders?

Much much more

[Brickitect]

there is a CPP file inside the file folder.
do i take out the CPP file, put it in shaders, and delete the other files in the shaders folder?

Dude, if you have no idea what you're doing - just don't do it. You're just going to forget your stuff up. Nobody wants to have to guide you on how to install this, how to troubleshoot any issues you have with it, explain why x is happening, how to uninstall etc.

Just wait until someone puts together a better way to implement custom shaders.

Reminds me of SFM's lighting system, nice

Will this work with Raedon HD 4000 Series?

Will this work with Raedon HD 4000 Series?

Isn't that an older model, thus less able to handle higher quality graphical settings?

How To Know If You Can You Can Use Soft Shaders:
Can you use normal max shaders?
If no, no.
If yes, divide that answer by 64.

instead of being unhelpful counterproductive loving twats you can post a nice clean tutorial on how to do this.


Full tutorial for everyone on how to install this.

Steam Users:
If you are on a 64bit operating system go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Blockland"

Open the shaders folder and you will see 4 files. Open up the file called "renderCsm_frag.glsl"

Right click it and click "Open With..."
Windows 8 people should get a screen asking if you want to search the store, click more options and find your way down to Notepad. Windows 7 and down you have to figure this part out on your own but if you really can't, open up Notepad via the start menu and drag renderCsm_frag.glsl into the window.


You should see a window like that.
Now go back up to either the Normal or the Ultra version and pick one.
Note: If your computer isn't literally as powerful as NSA brown town Rape Machines, then you'll lag like crazy.
Hit ctrl a to select everything then click ctrl c to copy it all to your clipboard.
Then go back to your Notepad window, hit ctrl a to copy everything, then click ctrl v to replace everything with the new shader code.

Save it and close out of that window.

Now rightclick renderCsm_frag.glsl and go all the way down to properties.

click read only and apply

click ok.

You can now start up blockland and turn on shaders to experience lag beautiful shaders.


Uninstalling
Launcher Users:
Delete renderCsm_frag.glsl
Steam Users:
Repeat the process but use this shader. This is a backup of the original.
