hi all, is there a printf like function in HLSL so i can write to PIX output log or to a log file or something similar? thanks a lot.

Nope.
Shader debugging is usually done with an external tool, something like NVPerfHud .

No, but considering that you can step through your HLSL line by line in PIX I don't see why you'd need to.

ok, thanks.
i would like to output a vec that changes with cam position, so i can simultanously change cam pos and watch results without a breakpoint.
so actually a way to write to the PIX HUD would be better, is there something like that?
