Android shaders

[xNick1]

Hi guys.
I'd like to use a shader to make the scene look more vivid on android.
I tried shine some time ago and it worked well on my pc.
However since android uses opengl es instead of opengl, it crashed on my device.

How do I write a shader for android?
Are there any premade shaders I can try?

Check out the GL ES specs. It's a lot like desktop GL except more stringent, some things that would work on the desktop wouldn't pass on mobile.

Got it.
I'll try asap!

Do Android shaders work on pc?
Or I have to deploy on Android every time?

I read that if you write opengl es, it works on opengl too.
So I can just write opengl es and it'll work everywhere.
Can you confirm that?

GL ES is a subset of OpenGL so yes it works on PC.

Nice. I managed to write what I needed and it's working. Just a little worried about it crashing on some old Android devices. I put a setting to disable shaders just in case.
Thank you
