  • XNA Shader Programming tutorials

    I have created a few tutorials on HLSL and Shader Programming using XNA. The tutorials will cover lights, normal mapping, ocean rendering, vertex deforming, gloss map, alpha maps, post process effects, transmittance and so on.

    These can be found on the following URL:

    Or directly to the shader tutorial overview:

    Enjoy! :)
