Overview########
Shaders are written in a OpenMW specific ``*.omwfx`` format. This is a lightwrapper around GLSL, so a basic understanding of GLSL should be acquired beforeattempting to write any shaders. Every shader must be contained within a single``*.omwfx`` file, ``#include`` directives are currently unsupported.
By default, all shaders only guarantee support of GLSL 120 features. To target anewer GLSL version, you must specify it in the `technique`_ block properties. Ifthe specified version is not supported on the target machine, the shader willnot load.
Reserved Keywords#################
GLSL doesn't support namespaces, instead reserved prefixes are used. Do notattempt to name anything starting with ``_`` or ``omw``, this will causename clashes.
Builtin Samplers################
+------------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------------------+| GLSL Type | Name | Description |+==================+===========================+=============================================+| sampler2D[Array] |``omw_SamplerLastShader`` | Color output of the last shader |+------------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------------------+| sampler2D[Array] |``omw_SamplerLastPass`` | Color output of the last pass |+------------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------------------+| sampler2D[Array] |``omw_SamplerDepth`` | Non-linear normalized depth |+------------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------------------+| sampler2D[Array] |``omw_SamplerNormals`` | Normalized world-space normals [0, 1] |+------------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
These are included in a common header in every pass, they do not need to be re-defined.It is recommended to use the accessor functions to retrieve the sampler value.OpenMW supports multiview rendering, so these samplers will either be a``sampler2D`` or ``sampler2DArray``. If you want more control over how yousample textures, use the ``OMW_MULTIVIEW`` macro to determine the appropriate functions to use.

Special Attributes##################
To maintain maximum compatibility with future releases, OpenMW defines specific keywords, attributes, and functions for you to use. These should be used instead of theirGLSL equivalent. Refer to the table below to view these mappings.
+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| .omwfx | Description |+===================+=========================================================+| omw_In | use in place of ``in`` and ``varying`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Out | use in place of ``out`` and ``varying`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Position | use in place of ``gl_Position`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Vertex | use in place of ``gl_Vertex`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Fragment | use in place of ``gl_FragData[*]`` and ``gl_FragColor``|+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Texture1D() | use in place of ``texture1D()`` or ``texture()`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Texture2D() | use in place of ``texture2D()`` or ``texture()`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+| omw_Texture3D() | use in place of ``texture3D()`` or ``texture()`` |+-------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
Blocks######
``fragment``*************
Declare your passes with ``fragment`` followed by a unique name. We will define the order of these passes later on.Each ``fragment`` block must contain valid GLSL. Below is a simple example of defining two passes.
.. code-block:: none
fragment pass { void main() { omw_FragColor = vec4(1.0); } }
fragment otherPass {
omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { omw_FragColor = omw_GetLastPass(omw_TexCoord); } }
``vertex``***********
For every ``fragment`` block you declare, OpenMW generates a default vertex shader if you do not define one. This is used to draw the fullscreen triangle used in postprocessing.This means you rarely need to use a custom vertex shader. Using a vertex shader can sometimes be useful when you need to do lots of complicated calculations that don't rely on pixel location.The vertex shader only invocates on the `3` vertices of the fullscreen triangle.Below is an example of passing a value through a custom vertex shader to the fragment shader.
.. code-block:: none
vertex pass { #if OMW_USE_BINDINGS omw_In vec2 omw_Vertex; #endif
uniform sampler2D noiseSampler;
omw_Out vec2 omw_TexCoord;
// custom output from vertex shader omw_Out float noise;
void main() { omw_Position = vec4(omw_Vertex.xy, 0.0, 1.0); omw_TexCoord = omw_Position.xy * 0.5 + 0.5;
noise = sqrt(omw_Texture2D(noiseSampler, vec2(0.5, 0.5)).r); } }
fragment pass { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
// our custom output from the vertex shader is available omw_In float noise;
void main() { omw_FragColor = vec4(1.0); } }
``technique``*************
Exactly one ``technique`` block is required for every shader file. In this we define important traits like author, description, requirements, and flags.
+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| Property | Type | Description |+==================+====================+===================================================+| passes | literal list | ``,`` separated list of pass names |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| version | string | Shader version that shows in HUD |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| description | string | Shader description that shows in HUD |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| author | string | Shader authors that shows in HUD |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| glsl_version | integer | GLSL version |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| glsl_profile | string | GLSL profile, like ``compatibility`` |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| glsl_extensions | literal list | ``,`` separated list of required GLSL extensions |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| hdr | boolean | Whether HDR eye adaptation is required. |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| pass_normals | boolean | Pass normals from the forward passes. || | | || | | If unsupported, `OMW_NORMALS` will be set to `0` |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| flags | `SHADER_FLAG`_ | ``,`` separated list of shader flags |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+| dynamic | boolean | Whether shader is exposed to Lua |+------------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------------------+
When ``dynamic`` is set to ``true``, the shaders order cannot be manually moved, enabled, or disabled. The shaders statecan only be controlled via a Lua script.
In the code snippet below, a shader is defined that requires GLSL `330`, HDR capatiblities, and is only enabled underwater in exteriors.
.. code-block:: none
fragment dummy { void main() { omw_FragColor = vec4(0.0); } }
technique { passes = dummy; glsl_version = 330; hdr = true; flags = disable_interiors, disable_abovewater; }
``sampler_*``*************
Any texture in the VFS can be loaded by a shader. All passes within the technique will have access to this texture as a sampler.OpenMW currently supports ``1D``, ``2D``, and ``3D`` texture samplers, cubemaps can not yet be loaded.
+-------------+| Block |+=============+| sampler_1d |+-------------+| sampler_2d |+-------------+| sampler_3d |+-------------+
.. warning:: OpenMW vertically flips all DDS textures when loading them, with the exception of ``3D`` textures.
The properties for a ``sampler_*`` block are as following.The only required property for a texture is its ``source``.
+-----------------------+-----------------------+| Property | Type |+=======================+=======================+|``source`` | string |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``min_filter`` | `FILTER_MODE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``mag_filter`` | `FILTER_MODE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``wrap_s`` | `WRAP_MODE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``wrap_t`` | `WRAP_MODE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``wrap_r`` | `WRAP_MODE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``compression`` | `COMPRESSION_MODE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``source_format`` | `SOURCE_FORMAT`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``source_type`` | `SOURCE_TYPE`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+|``internal_format`` | `INTERNAL_FORMAT`_ |+-----------------------+-----------------------+
In the code snippet below, a simple noise texture is loaded with nearest filtering.
.. code-block:: none
sampler_2d noise { source = "textures/noise.png"; mag_filter = nearest; min_filter = nearest; }
To use the sampler, define the appropriately named `sampler2D` in any of your passes.
.. code-block:: none
fragment pass { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
uniform sampler2D noise;
void main() { // ... vec4 noise = omw_Texture2D(noise, omw_TexCoord); } }
``uniform_*``**************
It is possible to define settings for your shaders that can be adjusted by either users or a Lua script.

The ``description`` field is used to display a toolip when viewed in the in-game HUD. The ``header`` fieldfield can be used to organize uniforms into groups in the HUD. The ``display_name`` field can be used to create amore user friendly uniform name for display in the HUD.
If you would like a uniform to be adjustable with Lua API you `must` set ``static = false;``. Doing thiswill also remove the uniform from the players HUD.
Below is an example of declaring a ``vec3`` uniform.
.. code-block:: none
uniform_vec3 uColor { default = vec3(0,1,1); min = vec3(0,0,0); max = vec3(1,1,1); step = vec3(0.1, 0.1, 0.1); description = "Color uniform"; static = true; header = "Colors"; }
To use the uniform you can reference it in any pass, it should **not** be declared with the ``uniform`` keyword.
.. code-block:: none
fragment pass { void main() { // ... vec3 color = uColor; } }
You can use uniform arrays as well, but they are restricted to the `Lua API <../lua-scripting/openmw_postprocessing.html>`_ scripts.These uniform blocks must be defined with the new ``size`` parameter.
.. code-block:: none
uniform_vec3 uArray { size = 10; }
You may also define a dropdown list for users to select specific values from instead of the default sliders using the ``widget_type`` field.Each item in the dropdown has an associated display name, which can be a localized string.
.. code-block:: none
uniform_int uStrength { default = 2; display_name = "Strength"; widget_type = choice( "Low" = 1, "Medium" = 2, "High" = 3 ); }
``render_target``*****************
Normally when defining passes, OpenMW will take care of setting up all of the render targets. Sometimes, this behavioris not wanted and you want a custom render target.

To use the render target a pass must be assigned to it, along with any optional blend modes.As a restriction, only three render targets can be bound per pass with ``rt1``, ``rt2``, ``rt3``, respectively.
Blending modes can be useful at times. Below is a simple shader which, when activated, will slowly turn the screen pure red.Notice how we only ever write the value `.01` to the `RT_Red` buffer. Since we're using appropriate blending modes thecolor buffer will accumulate.
.. code-block:: none
render_target RT_Red { width = 4; height = 4; source_format = rgb; internal_format = rgb16f; source_type = half_float; clear_color = vec4(0,0,0,1); }
fragment red(target=RT_Red,blend=(add, src_color, one), rt1=RT_Red) { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { omw_FragColor.rgb = vec3(0.01,0,0); } }
fragment view(rt1=RT_Red) { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { omw_FragColor = omw_Texture2D(RT_Red, omw_TexCoord); } }
technique { author = "OpenMW"; passes = red, view; }
These custom render targets are persistent and ownership is given to the shader which defines them.This gives potential to implement temporal effects by storing previous frame data in these buffers.Below is an example which calculates a naive average scene luminance and transitions between values smoothly.
.. code-block:: none
render_target RT_Lum { width = 256; height = 256; mipmaps = true; source_format = rgb; internal_format = rgb16f; source_type = half_float; min_filter = linear_mipmap_linear; mag_filter = linear; }
render_target RT_LumAvg { source_type = half_float; source_format = rgb; internal_format = rgb16f; min_filter = nearest; mag_filter = nearest; }
render_target RT_LumAvgLastFrame { source_type = half_float; source_format = rgb; internal_format = rgb16f; min_filter = nearest; mag_filter = nearest; }
fragment calculateLum(target=RT_Lum) { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { vec3 orgi = pow(omw_GetLastShader(omw_TexCoord), vec4(2.2)).rgb; omw_FragColor.rgb = orgi; } }
fragment fetchLumAvg(target=RT_LumAvg, rt1=RT_Lum, rt2=RT_LumAvgLastFrame) { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { vec3 avgLumaCurrFrame = textureLod(RT_Lum, vec2(0.5, 0.5), 6).rgb; vec3 avgLumaLastFrame = omw_Texture2D(RT_LumAvgLastFrame, vec2(0.5, 0.5)).rgb;
const float speed = 0.9;
vec3 avgLuma = avgLumaLastFrame + (avgLumaCurrFrame - avgLumaLastFrame) * (1.0 - exp(-omw.deltaSimulationTime * speed));
omw_FragColor.rgb = avgLuma; } }
fragment adaptation(rt1=RT_LumAvg) { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { vec3 avgLuma = omw_Texture2D(RT_LumAvg, vec2(0.5, 0.5)).rgb;
if (omw_TexCoord.y < 0.2) omw_FragColor = vec4(avgLuma, 1.0); else omw_FragColor = omw_GetLastShader(omw_TexCoord); } }
fragment store(target=RT_LumAvgLastFrame, rt1=RT_LumAvg) { void main() { vec3 avgLuma = omw_Texture2D(RT_LumAvg, vec2(0.5, 0.5)).rgb; omw_FragColor.rgb = avgLuma; } }
technique { author = "OpenMW"; passes = calculateLum, fetchLumAvg, store, adaptation; glsl_version = 330; }
Simple Example##############
Let us go through a simple example in which we apply a simple desaturationfilter with a user-configurable factor.
Our first step is defining our user-configurable variable. In this case all wewant is a normalized value between 0 and 1 to influence the amount ofdesaturation to apply to the scene. Here we setup a new variable of type``float``, define a few basic properties, and give it a tooltip description.
.. code-block:: none
uniform_float uDesaturationFactor { default = 0.5; min = 0.0; max = 1.0; step = 0.05; static = true; display_name = "Desaturation Factor"; description = "Desaturation factor. A value of 1.0 is full grayscale."; }
Now, we can setup our first pass. Remember a pass is just a pixel shader invocation.
.. code-block:: none
fragment desaturate { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { // fetch scene texture from last shader vec4 scene = omw_GetLastShader(omw_TexCoord);
// desaturate RGB component const vec3 luminance = vec3(0.299, 0.587, 0.144); float gray = dot(luminance, scene.rgb);
omw_FragColor = vec4(mix(scene.rgb, vec3(gray), uDesaturationFactor), scene.a); } }
Next we can define our ``technique`` block, which is in charge of glueingtogether passes, setting up metadata, and setting up various flags.
.. code-block:: none
technique { description = "Desaturates scene"; passes = desaturate; version = "1.0"; author = "Fargoth"; }
Putting it all together we have this simple shader.
.. code-block:: none
uniform_float uDesaturationFactor { default = 0.5; min = 0.0; max = 1.0; step = 0.05; description = "Desaturation factor. A value of 1.0 is full grayscale."; }
fragment desaturate { omw_In vec2 omw_TexCoord;
void main() { // fetch scene texture from last shader vec4 scene = omw_GetLastShader(omw_TexCoord);
// desaturate RGB component const vec3 luminance = vec3(0.299, 0.587, 0.144); float gray = dot(luminance, scene.rgb);
omw_FragColor = vec4(mix(scene.rgb, vec3(gray), uDesaturationFactor), scene.a); } }
technique { description = "Desaturates scene"; passes = desaturate; version = "1.0"; author = "Fargoth"; passes = desaturate; }
