<span class="anchor" id="line-1"></span><p class="line874">This section is by no means complete, as the shader system has more options in it than I could cover in one document. In this section we’ll go over some basics with extra passes in the shader system. <span class="anchor" id="line-2"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-3"></span><p class="line867"><hr /><p class="line874"> <span class="anchor" id="line-4"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-5"></span><p class="line867">
<h3 id="head-83c2e9183e258e1407dc4875953c689576cf605a">Definitions</h3>
<span class="anchor" id="line-6"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-7"></span><p class="line867"><strong>What is an extra pass?</strong> Every time you open and close a shader entry in the same shader entry you’re writing a pass. Extra passes are any entries other than the diffuse, bump, height, specular, and imagemap entries. <span class="anchor" id="line-8"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-9"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Time</strong>: A unit of measure in game. When the game starts, the games begins counting, and stops when the level is disconnected, or is shut down. No one really knows what the unit is, but its assumed its 1 to 1, although I think it uses fuzzy logic. <span class="anchor" id="line-10"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-11"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Modulation</strong>: Changes the UV values of vertices on a surface. Usually the first number is the U or horizontal direction, and the second value is V or the vertical direction. <span class="anchor" id="line-12"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-13"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Tables</strong>: Tables are numeric strings that act as modulation over time. See the tables’ section for more info. <span class="anchor" id="line-14"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-15"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Scroll</strong>: Changes the UV values of vertices on a surface. Moves the textures across a surface. There are 2 entries, the first number is for the positive and negative horizontal while the second number represents the positive and negative vertical. (Example: scroll 1, 0.) The range can be controlled over time. <span class="anchor" id="line-16"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-17"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Scale</strong>: Scales occur to the lower left hand portion of the textures. 2 values, the lower the number the larger the image, so a ‘scale 3, 3 would be smaller than a scale .5, .5. Scale can be modulated over time. <span class="anchor" id="line-18"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-19"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Centerscale</strong>: Same rules apply as Scale, but it scales from the center. (Example: centerscale 1, 1.) Centerscale can be modulated over time. <span class="anchor" id="line-20"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-21"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Shear</strong>: skews the texture from its center. The 2 entries represent the amount of shear you want. A little goes a long way, I think 1 = a 45 degree increment. (Example: shear .5, .5) Shear can be modulated over time. <span class="anchor" id="line-22"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-23"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Rotate</strong>: spins the texture (0 to 1), 0 = 0 degree and 1 = 360 degrees. Can be modulated over time. <span class="anchor" id="line-24"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-25"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Color</strong>: Numerically modulate the existing texture. Can be modulated over time through an expression. <span class="anchor" id="line-26"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-27"></span><p class="line867"><strong>Colored</strong>: Pays attention to the parm 0 parm 1 and parm 2. Shortcut to use the parms. Breaks if you define color values. <span class="anchor" id="line-28"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-29"></span><p class="line867"><strong>RGB</strong>: Monochromatic. Applies modulation to the RGB value (meaning an entity) <span class="anchor" id="line-30"></span><strong>RGBA</strong>: Monochromatic with alpha. Same as above except includes alpha. <span class="anchor" id="line-31"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-32"></span><p class="line867"><strong><span class="u">Blend modes</span></strong>: <span class="anchor" id="line-33"></span>Blend modes have 2 entries: One is, what do I do with the thing I’m drawing right now (Source Blend Mode), and the second is what is happening to the values that are already there. (Destination Blend Mode). The first is the source blend and the second is the destination blend on the blend line. (example blend gl_one, gl_one) <span cla
