hmm there's so many things shaders could be used for. Shaders are a really big part,they can effect game play positivly or neagitivly.shaders identtify lighting for kaiokns,character (trnsformations,uppers,lowers) etc.....
there's a couple kinds of shaders.
texture shaders, attack shaders, particle,and a couple more haha.

I don't know much myself but I spent a lot of time playing with the shader files and others, and there were som messy outcomes and some pretty cool ones best advice ist simply explore the files inyour ZEQ2 contents.Most are vry similar to ech other and you will get the hang of things, if you mess up the contents of a shader that you might be working on it won't read ingame and you might come out with a big black and white box(if you were making an attack or changing the texture of something) or if you were making a shader for a character and the game can't locate it when you open the game you may see wire frames or some times not even a wire fram but just no head or arms etc...Just make sure your very careful about what you do in the contents of a shader file.
Also a tip, say you were trying to make an energy ball that's green and you fixed up all the .png files and you have the skill folder all set up thenu open the shader file and your like what the heck.you could open a fikle similar to that like energy ball red perhaps and copythe content form ther into the energy ball green shader then simply change the name from energy ball red to energy ball green on all of the content in the file. but anyway I don't know that much to tell the truth hha I tink I just get lucky.

I hope this helps you
please excuse my spelling errors my keyboeard has a couple of broken keys. Smile
