Detailed Description

With the introduction of MetaSL as the core shading language, existing ways to build a shade tree have been deprecated.

Deprecated:

This is no longer used as a method to build a shade tree in 3ds Max

To build shaders of this form the developer is advised to use MetaSL and corresponding MetaSL workflows

#include <DeprecatedRealtimeMaterialTexturemapShaderAPI.h>

*code	A pointer to a buffer to store the HLSL code

Provide access to any textures used in the HLSL code.

This is used to store data to allow the HLSL compiler to find the sub maps used by the texture map. This also included a UI name for the effect file generation

Parameters:

*list

A pointer to a TexDataList that is used to store texture info

{ UNUSED_PARAM(list); };
