ShadowDepthWrapper error with WGSL shader syntax

Hi,

I am facing an error with ShadowDepthWrapper when my vertex and fragment shader are written in WGSL. The code works fine without ShadowDepthWrapper. But adding shadowDepthWrapper causes GLSL compilation error.

I am able to reproduce the error in a PG. The same error is thrown with empty main() function in WGSL syntax in dev console.

I think I know the root cause.

Even if I set parameter doNotInjectCode: true, babylon.js still injects this line into WSGL code: precision highp float;

This line seems to cause the error Tint WGSL reader failure: :20:1 error: unexpected token.

I debugged into this a bit and it looks like this is not implemented for WebGPU, yet. @Evgeni_Popov will know more about this than me, though.

Indeed, ShadowDepthWrapper does not currently support custom WGSL shaders.

It’s not in our top priorities, but if someone wants to contribute we are all for it!

Hi @Evgeni_Popov @docEdub

Thanks for looking into this. I most likely need customized version of vertex shaders for the shadow depth wrappers. And fragment shader for shadow is pretty much empty anyway. I can live with GLSL for now.
