This is the final function (- a…

As it seems to me correctly, a diamond is a kicked square… so why do you start from a point and not from a square, rotating it by 45 degrees? (shape == SHAPE_DIAMOND) { float angle45 = 3.14159265 / 4.0; // 45° float theta = atan(p.y - coord.y, p.x - coord.x) - angle45; float sin_t = abs…

[image] NateWr: Does anyone know how I could define a diamond shape No need to change anything in the shader. It has uniforms (a kind of parameters). There are uniforms for rotation (rotateR, rotateG and rotateB), so use them. Here is the default square pattern: [image] And here is the sam…
