trying to make a simple effect on a fullscreen triangle (triangle generated on the vertex shader using SV_VertexID) and on the pixel shader im trying color the triangle depending on its text coords (that is also generated on the vertex shader).
when i compare uv.x or uv.y with a magic number (like 0.3333 for example) it works just fine but when i use generic values (like 1 / 3 instead of using 0.3333) it doesnt work.
this is a simple example that shows the problem:
struct VSOutput
{
float4 position : SV_POSITION; // screen space
float2 uv : TEXCOORD; // [0,1] coords
};
PSOutput PS(VSOutput input)
{
PSOutput output = (PSOutput)0;
float oneThird = 1 / 3;
float twoThird = 2 / 3;
float x = input.uv.x;
if(x < oneThird)
output.diffuse = float4(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
else if(x > twoThird)
output.diffuse = float4(0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0);
else
output.diffuse = float4(0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0);
return output;
}
this outputs blue for the entire fullscreen triangle (meaning that only the "else if(x > twoThird)" test works) BUT if i change from "x < oneThird" and "x > twoThird" to "x < 0.3333" and "x > 0.6666" it outputs 3 color stripes and eveything works great.
conclusion: using 0.3333 instead of 1 / 3 and using 0.6666 instead of 2 / 3 works great, the other way around it doesnt work. is there something im missing?
thanks in advance.
