MadShaders 0.4.0 Released for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X (*** Updated: v0.4.1***)

I finally decided to take some time to browse and test the latest Shadertoy demos (Firefox/Chrome users on Windows: don’t forget to disable Angle and set the native WebGL support to browse Shadertoy website – more information on the procedure can be found HERE). Hundred and hundred of demos have been created on Shadertoy since MadShaders 0.3.0 and after few hours of browsing, I selected 35 effects for the new version of MadShaders.

• Windows: Unzip the archive and launch Madshaders.exe.
• OS X: Unzip the archive and launch Madshaders.app.
• Linux: Unzip the archive and launch madshaders.py (the file has the executable rights). Depending on the state of your distro, you might need to install the python-tk package: $ sudo apt-get install python-tk
