What's the difference between ShaderLab2 and 2.4? I got SL2 on

the RayPak disc. Are the differences bug fixes (if so what), faster

rendering of the textures ect...... How can I get the up-date to

ShaderLab 2.4?

Visit Primitive Itch's site, on the Shaderlab page there is a link that will go to what to do for the free upgrade from 2.0 to 2.4:

http://www.primitiveitch.com/php/catalog.php?uiKeySearch=ShaderLab+2.4&


Numerous changes were in there, in particular new functions for the shader writers, so many of my shaders for instnace require 2.4. They could be faster thanks to new functions that made things neater. It's a worthwhile upgrade :)


HTH!

Tom


EDIT: ACtually the page it links to seems only to show upgrades to 2.1. I would contact Primitive Itch directly and ask them about the update.


HTH!

Shaderlab2.4 will not run on my trueSpace 6.6. Do I need to reinstall TS5?


Thanks

It runs in my 6.6, and in 7.5. I'm using winxp, if that makes any difference.
