General DX9 -> DX11 shader migration approach? [spez. atmoshpere and ocean shader]

Good evening,
Just realized that I have a extreme high rate of failing with porting DX9 shaders to DX11.

Any tips and trick on how to do it right from the beginning on?

For example I encounter that I don’t get an error message and I am lost completely.

Most important shaders that I tried are the bump mapped and cube map reflection ocean shader by dottore and the atmospheric scatering by unc.

If someone know how to work it out a step by step guide on what you have to change to make and how you approach it would be very welcome.

Cheers

cool thats what i was looking for, i let you know if it worked.

hey tekcor,

did you succeed with porting the ocean shader ?

i’m asking before reinventing the wheel and doing it myself…

cheers

Hi,
No not exactely that one but i used tesselation displacement with bump mapping and cube map reflection instead… looked good enough for the water

Cheers :)
