As a workaround, using Ubuntu on Windows https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10

I re-installed java, scala, sbt etc for Ubuntu command line, then also sudo apt install glslang-tools

Then able to successfully sbt publishLocal for indigo/indigo

Otherwise when trying to build on windows DOS prompt it fails as described in above discussion.

My opinion, many game programmers are likely to be on Windows, although I have both Ubuntu and Windows for development, I tend to do my game stuff in Windows, support for windows straight out of the box without effort would be nice to reduce developer friction.

Following up on this old issue - I’ve had a go at this myself now.

The problem of not being able to run glslang I will address (I understand the problem now), but in fact on the current code base if you install glslang with scoop (scoop install glslang) it won’t let you use the validator, but you just get a warning saying “I couldn’t validate the shaders” but the build carries on as expected.
