shade-c inverted effect default, or glitch?

Hey Guys!

Im messing around with shaders right now, and Im looking into shade c to learn some further lite-c / general programming - and also to get the results of this awesome tool!

Problem is, when I start it up I get an inverted look to it.. Perhaps someone knows what this glitch is??

It can be seen with your eyes, in video here: Click to change websites

I tried figuring it out myself but it seems to be beyond my scope of knowledge with shade-c at the moment.. I've traced it all the way back to

I've used shade-c in the past and didn't have this problem before. I downloaded what I'm pretty sure is the latest version on github. Click to goto Github

Any thoughts?

Hmm.. I added it to another project, and didn't get the same results.. so it may just be something else in my project - however the shadows still didn't work either.

any thoughts?

I can only guess so:
1.) You´re using skills that shade-c uses, so they interfere and cause unexpected results (as far as I know shade-c uses skill99)
2.) You initialized something wrong
3.) Your graphic card does´nt support those effects

Hi DLively!

Try alphablendenable = false; in sc_gBuffer_sky.fx file, should work.

Thanks for your help Guys.
@ Alibaba: I changed the skills to lower numbers, and I dont use skill99 after reading the shadec documentation.
I've used shade c before, and have been successful with it.. My video card should be able to handle at least the min settings with an Nvidia GeForce G210 1024MB - I know its not a big video card, but it works for now.. Though my pc says I have 2303 MB total available graphics memory...

@Rojart: Thanks for your response, I tried your suggestion and have no further luck with it.

strange, because shade-c works fine for me with my changes.

Try also vec_set(sun_color, vector(200,200,200)); maybe it helps, otherwise an simple example from you would be great.

Would using the most current version of A8 (8.45.4) be the problem?

The above didin't work.
I'll try it again with another game

Edit: then, If all else fails ill send you a demo I really appreciate your help Rojart!

...removed ... I have no idea how my reply ended up here

The above changes do not be made, so there is no need to alter the fx file.

To fix this problem I had to make sure that default.fx and common.h were in my project folder and included to the script - The big problem was that I had not realized I was supposed to add a material to EVERYTHING in the level. So i added mtl_leveldefault, and everything worked great from there

You need to look at 07.c shadec sample and have a look at 06_transparent.fx (mtl_carWindow) to see how transparency (alpha channels) is handled.
