JME suddently does not recompile shader anymore

Hello,

I got some weird thing going on with Shader nodes
I was modifying code for the frag shader when suddently, new modifications did not appear in the game
and now if I check the shader tab , the frag shader is at an old version and wont be replaced by my new code
been digging this for hours, I just dont get what’s wrong

any idea ? some cache files I could delete or what ?

thanks

edit : I’ll try uninstall/reinstall JME… who knows

Did you try clean&build?

That was an issue with the shader node editor. It’s fixed now in master.
However, restarting the IDE should be enough (painful though, I agree), did you try?

yep
I reainstalled the platform and now it is complaining about a code error
so I think I found the issue
once the platfom freezes and need to be abruptly stoped, problem occurs
not the first time
doing platform updates now…

mhhh. I’m sorry about that. The node editor in 3.0 is really buggy.

To cheer you up, there has been a loot of enhancements to it for 3.1 and it should be a lot better.

lol, that’s ok I understand it is a wip

how do I get the 3.1 version ?

fyi : I aloso noticed the shader was not updated due to an error in the material definition (LighPosition not beeing part of UniformBindings…) wich I was unaware of until I clicked on the “Editor” tab, then the error popped up
