New extension: JShade: Custom GLSL Shaders For GDevelop!

[Smilertron]

Description

This extension adds partial GLSL shader support to GDevelop via JavaScript!

Works with all shaders meant to work on GDevelop, and SOME Shadertoy shaders.

I'm adding support for more shaders and more uses in the future, but for now it has limited support...

How to use the extension

Comes with 3 actions:

AddShader: Gives you a field to enter the GLSL code, put your shader between quotes and thats all the setup for this action.

UpdateTime: SOME shaders need this, specifically shaders with iTime or uTime or likewise...

RemoveShader: Self explanitory, removes any shader applied...

I would be curious how this is faring, this would be an amazing feature for any user. Any updates?

Hi Smiletron, l'm looking to apply a dot matrix effect like this:
https://sittingduck.itch.io/dot-matrix-shader-for-gamemaker
or: https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroArch/comments/1dknali/i_created_a_new_game_boy_color_and_game_boy/

But couldn't find anything for GDevelop, so I was happy to find your extension...can that effect be accomplished by pasting in the right GLSL code (with tweaking I'm sure) through AddShader, and do you have a specific one for GDevelop?
I tried one from here just testing: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/4sySDd
and kind of got it working but nothing of quality like the pics above:

Every other GLSL code I've tried I haven't had any luck with, tweaking (again I know very little on this).

I like Gdevelop and I sure as heck don't want to learn Gamemaker to implement this, as I'm close to releasing my game...

Thanks :)
