osx

Hello there,

I have an iMac with ATI Radeon 2600HD which supports Fragment_shader_arb. But whenever I use that function, it crashes the program. Ironically, it works on a windows installation in the same machine without any problems. I'm running OS X 10.6.2;

Can anyone please help me out!

P.S. Vertex shaders work fine without any problem.

Thank you!

Implementing algorithms via compute shaders vs. pipeline shaders

as seen on Game Development - Search for 'Game Development'
With the availability of compute shaders for both DirectX and OpenGL it's now possible to implement many algorithms without going through the rasterization pipeline and instead use general purpose computing on the GPU to solve the problem. For some algorithms this seems to become the intuitive canonical… >>> More
How do multipass shaders work in OpenGL?

as seen on Game Development - Search for 'Game Development'
In Direct3D, multipass shaders are simple to use because you can literally define passes within a program. In OpenGL, it seems a bit more complex because it is possible to give a shader program as many vertex, geometry, and fragment shaders as you want. A popular example of a multipass shader is… >>> More
