I’d like to announce availability of the second beta of the v001 Shaders. They are open source, Creative Commons-licensed video and 3D shaders built specifically for Jitter.

Download Shader Beta 2.0

I’ve added some fun new shaders. The changelog is below. I’ve got some other shaders in the pipe, but I wanted to get these out the door. I’m trying to release a bit more often to keep the kitchen warm.

I would love any feedback, suggestions, compatibility reports and ideas for new shaders, so feel free to chime in. I have not tested these shaders on all hardware, so it’s very possible certain shaders may not work on certain configurations. Your mileage may vary.

I hope you enjoy them, as I’ve had as much fun making them and learning as I have using them.
