Shader not compiling

[timde9]

So Dolphin told me to post this here and ask for help. I am not a programmer but after reading that the dolphin shaders are using CG format I figured I could use the shaders for retroarch found here
https://github.com/libretro/common-shaders/

since they are all cg I figure it'd be not much of a problem. So i tried to load up an xbr shader to see how it looks and I got error c3001: no program defined

here is the shader I am trying

just wondering if there is a simple way to fix this as again I am not a programmer.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks everyone

I've only studied shaders in passing, but recent revisions of Dolphin use GLSL rather than Nvidia CG or whatever as the shading language. You'll have to find a way to convert the shader you have to GLSL with the latest. With revisions prior to the GLSL merge, you can still use CG shaders. It might work with something like the stable 3.5 release. I dunno much about shaders, like I said, but using the wrong shading language has been the culprit for me in the past.

So that's why shaders aren't working XD, dunno why I didn't think of that

Well I am using the 3.5 stable version and it is not working. I tried using a GLSL version of the shader but that had tons of errors compiling as well. The cg shader only had a single error so that leads me to believe that the version I am using is using cg. I guess I'll just have to mess around with different versions. Does anybody know which recent version is the most playable anyway?

3.5 does use Nvidia CG for the post processing shaders.
That post processing shader has both a vertex and pixel shader in it though. We only let one use a pixel shader.
It would require some work to make it work with our post processing shaders. For one, it would need to be converted to GLSL since we no longer use Nvidia CG, and then potentially some code to make our source support both pixel and vertex shaders.

I see. Thank you for in the in depth reply. I have tried a GLSL version of the shader with no success so this explains why. Thanks so much.
