Solved Need help with shaders in dll (C++)

[MarsupialLizard]

Is it even possible to do this without C#? If so, can anyone help?

Here is the code, everytime I launch the xex I get a fatal crash.

I have even tried it without setting putting setShader in the menu and it still crashes when i load the xex.

Is it a default_mp issue or does the default_mp load without it? BTW those hudelem shaders don't work to well if you plan on using that online.

Im guessing it might be a problem with the xex, it loads other dlls just fine, but if i try to load a dll with shaders it will crash before loading the game.
Also, what kind of shaders (if any) would work good online?

Ive been using some of the menus already made. Only just began giving making my own a shot.

Same here, its easy to make one with just different colored text. But shaders make the menu look so nice.

Yes they do.

lol. your thinking too deep. the reason for thuis not working is because look at the first paramater in the setShader.

instead of using a actual hudelem hes just put 0 meaning it wont work. to Fix Do This

There. done
if(rs == 1)
{
setShader(spawnElem(0), "ac130_overlay_grain", 0x11, 0x06, 0x4A, 0x46, 0x2E, 0x32, 0x8A, 0, 0, 255, 150);

I got it working. The main problem was that I was using a default patched to TU7 with TU8 offsets in my dll but this was the second problem.
Anyways thanks for everyone that helped.
