Not sure at all if I said this correct, but, I´m trying to use the depth buffer within the “effect composer” for a custom shader. I understand that I need to render to a renderTarget first to get the depthbuffer from the renderer… Now, when I want to use the depthTexture of the renderTarget in my s…

Here is your updated fiddle: BLOOM ADVANCED - JSFiddle - Code Playground It does not make sense to call clear() right after rendering to depthRenderTarget. This will clear its content. You have to be aware that passing a shader to ShaderPass means it’s uniforms are cloned (meaning the texture of t…

It seems you are using the code from the official depth texture example . Try to demonstrate the problem with a live example. Please keep in mind that no member of this community has telepathic abilities. Without providing an option for debugging, you probably won’t get any help.

Sorry! And sure …so here we go: If I setup the depthShader and in the fragmentShader set tDiffuse to be the result, it´s working: http://jsfiddle.net/blackInk/tf1hdvLa/14/ If I setup the depthShader and in the fragmentShader set depth to be the result, it´s not working aka, think the depth´s valu…

[image] blackInk: If I setup the depthShader and in the fragmentShader set tDiffuse to be the result, it´s working: Your first fiddle throws the following warnings so it’s not working correctly: [image] Are you aware that this.width and this.height are undefined?

Well, this had “not so much” to do with the not rendered depth… but I corrected it so the warnings go away. !!!Still, diffuse from depthShader works: http://jsfiddle.net/blackInk/tf1hdvLa/24/ Use/Show depthTexture from depthShader fails: http://jsfiddle.net/blackInk/tf1hdvLa/25/

How cool is that, thanks a lot for helping and more, explaining!!!
