So we just found out about earlier today that we've wasted countless hours dancing around the most inane cg errors all because we were using a very outdated profile (working from the homework 1 code on my laptop). The profile we were using didn't support while or for loops, min/max calls, or even tex2d!!! The only way we finally found out this was the problem was when Gary walked by and we complained to him that we spent most of our time debugging cg line by line with out a complier due to an "cg compile error" crash at runtime.
He told us about the "cgc" command line debugger and now we're finally able to fly through cg code like we should have been doing weeks ago. Now we're working with fp40 and things are going well. Stocked up on Red Bull and candy from WaWa =)
