Unable to get CGP Multipass files to load

Post by Vaulcul »

Hi there...

Everything I've read about the CGP Multipass files seems simple enough, follow the general guidlines (or copy the text from the forum) into a file <whatever>.cgp file, make sure that the CG files that the CGP file refers to are in the same directory, and then load the CGP file in place of the CG file in the Video Settings. (Am I right?)

But, everytime I try and do this i get the following error: "Error Loading HLSL File" OR "Error Loading GLSL File" (Depending on whether I choose Open GL or Direct3D).

Am I doing something wrong? Everyone else makes this seem so easy as I read the forums.

My Video card is an Nvidia GT430 (does this make a difference)?

Thanks in advance.

I should also state that I'm running SNES9x 1.53, I've installed the latest Direct X from Microsoft, installed the NVidia CG Developer kit, and copied the CG DLL files to the SNES9x folder.

Still no success.

1.53 only supports regular cg shaders. For the meta shaders you need to use the testbuilds. Here is the most recent one: snes9x_testbuild_12092012.zip
