Godot Version
4.3.stable
Question
I have come back to one of my old projects that used a really cool pixel art shader from this video tutorial here. When I upgraded the project from 4.2 to 4.3 the code no longer works. I have spent at least 5 hours just trying various different things and nothing is working. What has changed that stops it from working?

vec2 nearest_uv = snapped_uv;

for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
float d = get_depth(uvs[i], INV_PROJECTION_MATRIX);
depth_diff += depth - d;
depth_diff_reversed += d - depth;
if (d < nearest_depth) {
nearest_depth = d;
nearest_uv = uvs[i];
}
vec3 n = texture(normal_texture, uvs[i]).xyz * 2.0 - 1.0;
vec3 normal_diff = normal - n;
float normal_bias_diff = dot(normal_diff, normal_edge_bias);
float normal_indicator = smoothstep(-0.01, 0.01, normal_bias_diff);
normal_sum += dot(normal_diff, normal_diff) * normal_indicator;
}
float depth_edge = step(depth_threshold, depth_diff);
float reverse_depth_edge = step(reverse_depth_threshold, depth_diff_reversed);
float indicator = sqrt(normal_sum);
float normal_edge = step(normal_threshold, indicator - reverse_depth_edge);
vec3 original = texture(screen_texture, snapped_uv).rgb;
vec3 nearest = texture(screen_texture, nearest_uv).rgb;
mat3 view_to_world_normal_mat = mat3(
INV_VIEW_MATRIX[0].xyz,
INV_VIEW_MATRIX[1].xyz,
INV_VIEW_MATRIX[2].xyz
);
float ld = dot((view_to_world_normal_mat * normal), normalize(light_direction));
vec3 depth_col = nearest * darken_amount;
vec3 normal_col = original * (ld > 0.0 ? darken_amount : lighten_amount);
vec3 edge_mix = mix(normal_col, depth_col, depth_edge);
ALBEDO = mix(original, edge_mix, (depth_edge > 0.0 ? depth_edge : normal_edge));
}
I found an old screenshot of the shader working on my project and then took another of what it looks like now.
