I had a quick look at the shader toolkit and shaderFollowCharacter() seems indeed the way to go, but yeah, there is the viewport overflow problem with the backgrounds. I'll see if I can manage to modify the function to not go over the limit and behave like the standard camera :)

Okay, I see you already figured it out. We'll handle the particle system later, the shader toolkit should work, tested that very intensive. If you got dumps, please send them to me ;)Also if it's a submission for the competition and your program crashes, we will fix it and you won't get negative points by that ;)

Nice that to function is much neater, when did that spring up? :)I think I've found the bug, its actually a different scene which uses the blur shader, and I think I had a value of 0.8 as the blur.Weirdly the scene with the blur works fine and a totally unrelated scene without any shader effects was crashing..It hasnt happened for the last 30 minutes, so fingers crossed that was it.Thanks for the fast (and late) responseJust to check ..Demo game submissions need to be by midnight tomorrow (UK time) don't they? :)

actually Im not using shaders for that move anymore, I used to have a shader zoom in there but I removed it.any ideas?

On the wiki?You need to include (once) the shader toolkit script found on this page [url=http://wiki.visionaire-tracker.net/wiki/Shader_(CMS)]here[/url] into a script in the script section of your project. Unfortunately there's no addon for a copypaste button for the code block & it's quite large, but there is a .lua file available in the resources table at the bottom which can be opened up in any text editor, which will allow you to do select all & copy.After you've added that, you can use the various shader functions & shader effects that are currently available to apply various effects to the screen &/or scene objects. See [url=http://wiki.visionaire-tracker.net/wiki/Compiled_Index_of_Lua_Scripts_for_Visionaire_Studio#Shader_Toolkit_Functions]here[/url].The noise function can be found [url=http://wiki.visionaire-tracker.net/wiki/ShaderNoise_(CMS)]here[/url].Quick note: general screen effects will by default also affect the text & mouse cursors too. If you don't want it to affect them then just create an execute a script in game launch actions containing...[code]-- this will exclude interfaces, display text & mouse cursors from being affected by the shader.game.ShaderExclude = eShaderExcludeInterfaces[/code][i]or...[/i][code]-- this will exclude display text & mouse cursors from being affected by the shader.game.ShaderExclude = eShaderExcludeTextsAndCursor[/code]P.P.S: there is a bug in the current build with ShaderExclude. It generates black thumbnails for the save system in which only the cursor can be seen. This has been fixed for the next public build.
