Bloom Post fx causes my script to give errors

[karmacomposer]

If I add the following to my code:

 

 

fw.renderer.SetBloom(1)

 

Then I get a unhandled exception error: Failed to compile fragment shader object

 

The following does work fine (note the Bloom is commented out):

 

 

fw.renderer.SetAntialias(1)
'fw.renderer.SetBloom(1)
fw.renderer.SetGodRays(1)
fw.renderer.SetHDR(1)
fw.renderer.SetSSAO(1)
fw.renderer.SetWireFrame(0)

fw.renderer.SetFarDOF(1)
fw.renderer.SetFarDOFStrength(1)
fw.renderer.SetFarDOFRange(25, 100)
fw.renderer.SetSaturation(0.1)
fw.renderer.SetBrightness(0.5)
fw.renderer.SetContrast(1.5)

fw.renderer.SetDistanceFog(1)
fw.renderer.SetDistanceFogRange(0,10)
fw.renderer.SetDistanceFogColor(Vec4(1,1,1,1))
fw.renderer.SetDistanceFogAngle(0,45)

fw.renderer.SetWater(1)
fw.renderer.SetWaterHeight(-1.25)
fw.renderer.SetWaterColor(Vec4(0.75,0.75,0.75,1.0))
fw.renderer.SetReflectionElements(ENTITY_MESH+ENTITY_TERRAIN)
fw.renderer.SetWaterAmplitude(32.0)
fw.renderer.SetWaterWaveSpeed(2.0)
fw.renderer.SetWaterSoftness(1.0)

 

I updated Leadwerks using the LESDK utility and it updated many files including the shader.pak

 

I had downloaded a few of the user-created shaders (like lensflares and vignettes) and tried to combine that with the existing shader.pak and it did not work - so I replaced the edited one with the original shader.pak file that I had backed up. Ever since then I get this error. Even using the download utility did not fix it and I get these errors.

 

I do want to use Bloom.

 

This is being done in BlitzMax. Everything compiles just fine otherwise. I am using the 3rd person to FPS script that was graciously made available in the asset download area. I just made some additions.

 

What am I doing wrong or why is this happening?

Works just fine here, so my suggestion is to use the LESDK utility to make a clean LE folder. So my guess is that you apparently still have an older modified shader pak somewhere...

OK. Will do.

also, just an fyi... in bmax you don't have to state the framework commands like:

fw.renderer.SetBloom(1)

they can be written like this:

SetBloom(1)

[karmacomposer]

That worked well and I will try the easier code.

 

Thank you for your help.
