Most of the 3D preview and floating window mode has been done by two amazing contributors. I only reviewed and help guide them. ๐Ÿฅœ
Thanks a lot!

How'd you envision a breakpoint feature? What would it do? Show the result of a selected group of lines or always show rhe result of a lime even if you click somewhere else?

Thank you so much for sharing this! It's really great to know more people will have an easier time with shaders. ๐Ÿฅœ

Add check for Material Override when checking currently selected node. ยท Issue #13 ยท cashew-olddew/godot-shader-previewer Currently, the addon checks if a node using the shader is selected in order to sync the parameters. To do that, the addon looks for the selected node's material. People might want to use this shade...

Here's the repo in case you need some inspiration, but what the addon does is to find a variable assignment and to add a COLOR = vec4(that_value) after it: github.com/cashew-oldde...

The harder parts are getting access to the shader editor (godot has no public API for that so I had to look into the source code) and syncing the shader parameters to the actual preview (can't directly use the material as I'm modifying the shader and it would modify the original node's shader)

08.03.2026 16:23 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well, the process is actually quite simple. You know when you usually want to preview a line of code, you comment out the rest of the code and add COLOR=vec4(my_vec2, 0.0, 1.0) to visualize it. The plugin pretty much does that. It parses the file, gets the current line and then creates a new shader

If you want to make Godot games/apps, go for gdscript. It's super easy to learn.

If you intend to create advanced plugins or to contribute to the engine, then go with C++

In regards to C#, I'm not sure. If you are really good with C#, then it could be worth it, but otherwise, I'd personally pass๐Ÿฅœ

Woah! This is the first time I'm seeing an actual implementation from someone following the shaders course.

It's so impactful to see that and it, honestly, brought a big smile on my face! ๐Ÿฅœ

Village High-Res Textures by OldDewS Textures from a traditional 1800s Romanian village

I recently had some fun taking texture photos in both a rural and urban environment. I'm definitely no professional, but the quality of the images is pretty good.

I made two texture packs you can use for FREE:

I just remembered! Last year I made a Pumpkin Carving game for Halloween. It's kind of rough around the edges, but if you haven't carved a pumpkin yet, you could give it a try!
