FINALLY! I fixed it....
You must copy shadercompile.exe and shadercompile_dll.dll to your stdshaders folder. In the buildshaders.bat is echo %SDKBINDIR%\shadercompile.exe >> filelist.txt Remove the %sdkbindir%\ and then rem out the other two which you did not copy. Now it should work!!!!!

The problem was that buildshaders.bat some reason echo'd the shadercompile.exe its dll and the other two dlls that have error into the filelist and then shadercompile used that file list to try and build the shaders to be compiled. Since those 4 files are not in the shaderpath folder they don't even need to be in there. I also tried the ep1 compiler but it doesn't support all the flags in use. /DMain etc. Chris -----Original Message----- From: hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Tobias Kammersgaard Sent: Saturday, January 02, 2010 12:24 PM To: Discussion of Half-Life Programming Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Shader Compiling Issues It worked perfectly for me with the relative path.
