Shader Effects

I know it's only just come out but I'm noticing that the warp effects aren't working in FF 14.0.1, they work fine in Chrome. Anyone else get this?

I notice they completely mess up my computer. I can't look at the layout or anything. Drivers are up to date though. The effects work in Chrome but just not in the editor.

Perhaps webgl is not enables in ff on your computer?

To turn it on:

Go to address about:config

type in webgl

set "webgl-force-enabled" to true

Thanks R0J0hound, I assumed because other shaders are working that it was turned on. I've now set "webgl-force-enabled" to true but still no joy. :( Are there any other setting that need turning on?

Well I'd go with chrome for your testing for now.

The computer I'm on right now has a very old graphics card so webgl shaders don't work at all. It only support opengl 1.4 and I think you need support for at least opengl 2.0 to get shaders working in the editor.

It is probably falling back to canvas2d in firefox. You could try setting "webgl.prefer-native-gl" to true and see if that works. I imagine it will if the effects are working in the editor.

All effects look as they should in the editor. Tried setting "webgl.prefer-native-gl" still no luck. I have a Nvidia GeForce 8800 graphics card and drivers are up to date. Is this hapenning to anyone else?

I also have OpenGL 3.3.0.

Create a text object and add an event "start of layout: set text to renderer" and see if it says webgl. If it says canvas2d can you run any other webgl shader demos from around the internet from firefox?

Yup, says 'webgl" for renderer and I can run all the ones from webglplayground.net.

From my quick tests, most webGL fx works in firefox except water.

The image distorts in the editor, it does distort too in chrome, but it doesn't when I preview in FF 14.0.1

Apart from this fx though, the others I've been trying are working.

Edit: I've just tested a combination Glass+GrayScale, and it happens to be flipping the over cog and under texture in the "WebGL shader effects.capx". Not really something I would have expected.

But it does in FF and chrome (in the editor, it only flips the under texture).

I've noticed some of the Warp effects don't work in the latest Firefox stable (14). However, they work in the latest Firefox Nightly (17), so I think it's a Firefox bug. It should be fixed when Nightly makes its way to stable in a couple of months. Chrome seems to be working fine in the mean time.

Phew!

Warp effects now work in the latest version of FF v15

Great, good to hear!

Yeah every effect is fine for me in Firefox 15
