Is there any PixiJS V4 Shader Example with Source Code

[StratosphereDesigns]

Hi guys, I'm new here on the forum as you can see my first post. I'm curious to know is there any good sourced tutorial for V4 Shader Implementation? I have looked but find old tutorials and from what I see its changed in v4.

I've got down all the other stuff for PixiJS and I love it, but the shaders implementation for V4 has me a bit lost lol.

What would be great is a demo of the the V2 or V3 shader that came packaged working in V4. Or maybe a shadertoy.com version.

I'm looking to implement it using the JavaScript Tag encapsulated. Maybe I've overlooked info somewhere?

Shaders in renderer plugin for sprites: https://github.com/pixijs/pixi-plugin-example

Yeah, its not as easy as v3. Some performance optimizations lead to significant difficulties. We'll fix it in v5.

Sorry, I dont have any demos about those things, you have to experiment and use forum search.

If you want more hardcore examples, that's multi-texture renderer plugin that adds dark tint like in Spine: https://github.com/gameofbombs/pixi-heaven/tree/master/src/twotint Also it can batch masks. No other webgl renderer can do that.

Projection plugin adds 2d projections (sorry, no 3d yet), and shaders for them: https://github.com/pixijs/pixi-projection

I'm not a person who focuses on docs. I just want people who really need it to fix filters and make renderer plugins to be able to get that difficulty. My tutorials made it possible, but I cant guarantee that its actually easy, you need knowledge about pixi architecture and webgl low-level anyway. I hope we'll bring it to "for general usage" level in next version again.

Thanks Ivan, appreciate the info this will help get me going in the right direction. look forward to v5! Thanks for all your efforts!
