In the context of videogame development what are shaders? I just can’t wrap my head around the concept.
In: Technology
It used to specifically be the part of a video game program that ran on the GPU to draw the shadows etc on the screen. It would compute things like the light intensity and angle and the geometry and placement of an object on screen and then decide where and how dark to draw the shadows for that object.
But now it basically refers to any sub program that runs on a GPU.
