PixelShader won't compile in dx9
Author
I''m upgrading my engine to dx9 from dx8.1 and a pixel shader that compiled fine before but won''t compile under dx9
this is it:
ps_1_3
tex t0
texdp3tex t1,t0_bx2
texbem t2,t0_bx2
texbem t3,t0_bx2
lrp r0.rgba,t3.a,v0,t3
lrp r0.rgba,t1,t2,r0
Its used to render water the t0 is a normal map, and texdp3tex is a look up to a fresnel table, and the first texbem is the reflected scene and the second is the underwater scene (for refractions)
Any one see how I can fix this
...What are the error messages? They should be spit out to the debugger, or you can run it through fxc to see.
Do you have dcl statements?
I like pie.

it complains about the _bx2 suffix on the texbem intructions but it didn't in dx8.1 and it doesn't work right with out them. There are no dcl statements in a pixel shader?
Also the docs say that its only invalid in versions 1.0 and 1.1

It appears DX9 simply fixes a bug that was in previous versions. The following is from a DirectXDev thread from last year:

usage and fails CreatePixelShader. If you see otherwise, then it is
validator missing that case.

We''ve been getting really flakey results when you use the _bx2 extension
with any of the dependent reads (in our case, texbem). Sometimes it
seems to ignore the modifier, and sometimes it seems to take the values
from random RGB channels, not the ones it''s meant to. For example,
texbem blah, blah_bx2 seems to take signed values from the G and A
channels (but only sometimes - sometimes it works fine - we don''t know
why).
