Hello,
I’m still just a beginner when it comes to shaders, but managed to modify a shaderforge texture to do what i wanted it to do - swap colours so that I could do old-school palette swapping on sprites. And it worked beautifully.
But recently I wanted to do some modifications to it, and managed to break it… simply by adding more identifiers and trying to reference them.
I was confused since I had the identifiers declared at the top of the shader, along with the ones that did work. So I tried renaming the existing identifiers that did work and suddenly those didn’t work anymore either. I’m stumped.
So here’s the shader below, and the error is on line 98, undeclared identifier _CompareBG
Shader "NES_DualSprite" {
