sfml shaders in csharp

To use SFML shaders in C#, the SFML.NET library is required. Here's how to use shaders with SFML.NET:

  1. Download and install SFML.NET.
  2. Create a new C# project in your preferred IDE.
  3. Add the following lines to your project to import the necessary libraries:
main.cs
using SFML.Graphics;
using SFML.System;
40 chars
3 lines
  1. Create a Shader object and load a vertex and fragment shader.
main.cs
Shader shader = new Shader(null, "path/to/fragment.glsl");
59 chars
2 lines
  1. Create a RenderTexture object to render your scene to.
main.cs
RenderTexture texture = new RenderTexture(width, height);
58 chars
2 lines
  1. Apply your shader to your RenderTexture.
main.cs
texture.Draw(drawable, new RenderStates(shader));
50 chars
2 lines
  1. Finally, display the contents of your RenderTexture.
main.cs
RenderStates renderStates = new RenderStates(shader);
texture.Display();
window.Draw(new Sprite(texture.Texture), renderStates);
129 chars
4 lines

Where window is your RenderWindow object and drawable is the Drawable object you want to render with the shader applied.

That's it! Now you can create and use shaders in your SFML.NET C# project.
