.fx = HLSL = GLSL pretty much (with very small modifications) ... so yes shaders you can see in facewound example will work with ColdSteel when i get the time to figure them out because Irrlicht supports HLSL and everything in them up to shader model 3.0, and they'll work in BMax3d, Cobra, etc.
Very cool little things i tell ya.
After you read through a few pages of the microsoft refference you should know how to convert from .fx to HLSL, there's hardly anything to change actually. You just need to know what's what. And then you can make your own shaders with tools such as Nvidia fx composer ;) but that may take a bit more experience to get it all working. With nice tutorials it won't be that hard.
