Direct 3D11 Shader not being rendered in Game view (only scene view)

Julian Allescher 9 years ago • updated 9 years ago • 2
Sorry for bothering you with my problems so often Joachim,

I've built a (IMO) very simple shader with reflective transparency, which works fine in scene/editor view. On the other hand, in Game view the material is not visible at all. I found out it has something to do with "Shader Settings" -> "Target renderer". When unchecking "Direct3D 11" the material becomes visible in GameView, but missing the effects I was trying to achieve.

This isn't the only shader I made that is struggling with this issue. What am I doing wrong? And how can I fix it?
Is there a way to have this material visible in Gameview while having "Direct 3D11" checked?

I'm guessing you may be forcing DX11 somewhere? Have an extra look at your quality settings and player settings. Also, you have a warning in the console.

Warning said: "Your shader might not render properly on your workstation - you need to have Direct3D 11 enabled when working in DX11 mode on Windows. Click the icon to enable Direct3D 11!" So not really helpful for me... :D Quality/Player settings didn't help much either.

But I found a way to overcome my problem:
I just duplicated the ".shader"-file in my explorer folder and also created a new material using that duplicated shader. For some reasons the new material finally displays in the game window.
The old shader still won't display though.

Don't know if it's a Unity or Shaderforge Bug, I leave this info here anyway :D
