New WebGL shader demo

Hey all,

In case you missed it on Facebook, Twitter or Google+, I've ported the old 'Rain demo' from Construct Classic to Construct 2 with a few tweaks, to show off the WebGL shaders that are coming in r100.

WebGL shaders are really exciting - you can do some awesome stuff with them! If you look closely at this demo, you should be able to see several effects at work. You'll need WebGL support to see the effects so make sure you use Chrome or Firefox (Chrome does best on this one) and that you have up-to-date graphics drivers.

The Rain Demo

I know you'll ask when r100 is coming - hopefully in about 2 weeks now!

Here's the equivalent exported as an EXE using Awesomium, also available in r100:

Will this fare well on mobile?

Quoted from the wiki:

"Mobile Browsers

Nokia N900 - WebGL is available in the stock microB browser from the PR1.2 firmware update onwards.[25]

BlackBerry PlayBook - WebGL is available via WebWorks and browser in PlayBook OS 2.0[26]

Firefox for mobile - WebGL is available for Android devices in unstable builds since early 2011.[27]

The Sony Ericsson Xperia range of Android smartphones have had WebGL capabilities following a firmware upgrade.[28]

Opera Mobile 12 final supports WebGL (on Android only).[29]"

Hopefully chrome and safari will support it soon ;]

KMag

Goes perfectly on Chrome. Someone test this on Mobile with Cocoon :)

Another cool thing from shaders: Now we have scene transition effects ! Yay \O/

sounds awesome! im at work now but ill check it when i get home

Just a reminder - we still currently have WebGL disabled on mobile devices - C2 games will fall back to canvas 2D. This is because most mobile browsers which support WebGL that I've tried either crash or are slower than canvas 2D. Hopefully in the long term it can be enabled again, but mobile browsers need some work.
