Great to hear, thank you for the info.

Bump. Some simple support on this from Amplify would be very welcome. Thank you.

Maybe if I ask differently - Do we need to do anything special with our Amplify shaders to support Nintendo Switch?

Hello, we are starting to port our game to consoles and were wondering if Amplify shaders support the Switch? Under Rendering Platforms we do not see an option for the Switch (just 3DS and Wii U).

We can't seem to find a setting which provides the propper "#pragma only_renderers" code. Or will it ...

So I just tried a couple of more things to see what would happen:
1. Reverted to v1.7.0 and it worked again.
2. Did a clean install of v1.8.0 and go the same issue.
3. Reverted just the RenderMask.shader file to the v1.7.0 version in our v1.8.0 install and everything compiles fine.

For now I am ...

I believe we are single pass, but if there is a way to verify please let me know and I can double check. Our game is not VR/AR or anything and we are not even using the masking feature - just a standard forward rendering game meant for traditional displays - https://store.steampowered.com/app/577360 ...

Update: It seems that building for Unity v5.6.6f2 allows the build to finish, but the error still appears when making a build. Our game is not currently on 5.6.6f2 however.

Hello, we recently updated the the latest Amplify Color (v1.8.0_dev004 from the asset store) and can no longer build our game. We get the following error when building (windows build):

Shader error in 'Hidden/RenderMask': invalid subscript 'instanceID' 'UnitySetupInstanceID': no matching 1 ...

Okay, thanks for the tip. I did try playing with that but could not get the shader to behave just like the old one. My solution above got an exact match from what we had. The game is close to shipping, so I'm leaving it alone lol. Our next project we will handle shaders much better!

Okay, after some experimentation I found a setup that works well in ASE to emulate what we had before (posted here). If anything could be done better/more efficiently I'm happy to hear about it.
