Error with Abnormal

[kimlori]

Hi! I get the error in the attached photo when I try to start Abnormal after installing the master zip. Do you happen to have any ideas on what I could try to get the error to disappear? Thank you!

[CodyWinch]

Can you share a screenshot of the error inside for the System Console?

Thank you!!

[CodyWinch]

I just pushed a commit that may fix it. It is hard for me to tell since I am not on a Mac.

[kimlori]

Thank you for your help!! :)

I can reproduce the error in 2.83 and 2.93

Some shader compile error on mac?

Can you share the screenshot of the full system console error? There should be more info above that.
Yes I believe this is a Mac specific issue. I will work on a version with a optional different draw system for macs.

[circuitbone]

Apologies I am very new to Blender ( few months in )

bpy.context.area.ui_type = 'VIEW_3D' bpy.ops.abnormal.normal_editor_modal()
Is what appears above the error message.

[CodyWinch]

This is where you get the system console. It will open a window with a bunch of text. Share a screenshot of that starting with the first error. It will be a big block of text like in the shared screenshot above.

The mac has nothing there, I had to launch a terminal at the same time as the Blender application according to this article.

https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/102860/how-to-open-system-console-to-get-output-from-blender-on-mac-os-10

A naming convention of the shader appears to be one of the errors.

Alright, it seems gl_FragColor is no longer supported in newer OpenGL versions which I guess Mac is using the newer version.
Try the new one and let me know if that works.

[circuitbone]

Ok that results in this data

Assuming it has something to do with that outdated fragcolor name

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26695253/when-switching-to-glsl-300-met-the-following-error

[CodyWinch]

Yeah that is what I thought I just changed.

There should no longer be any gl_FragColor being used.

[CodyWinch]

I tried to setup a Mac virtual machine, but it won't open blender.

I just commited another setup that I use in another addon so give it another try with a clean install of abnormal.

[circuitbone]

Are you suggesting addons can clash?
