Shades is a shader management tool for Destiny 2. Check it out at https://shades.mikebeas.com.

Tonight I noticed that the Brineglow shader isn’t showing in Shades.

I looked into it to see if it was similar to the issue I had with War Weary a while back. Turns out it’s an issue with a number of shaders on Bungie’s end.

There’s a GitHub issue if you want to follow: github.com/Bungie-net/a...
Primer shader item has no related Collectible · Issue #1998 · Bungie-net/api
Probably a game side issue

Tomorrow is the 3-year anniversary of Shades launching. Didn't even realize it was this week!

NEW in Shades 1.32.0, going live right now:

Select multiple Guardians at the same time to apply shaders across all of your characters (including your vault, if you want).

Until this is resolved, Chatterwhite won’t show up in Shades, since the app uses your collection data to figure out what shaders you have. Once this is fixed you should see the shader show up!
We're aware that the Chatterwhite shader isn't appearing in Collections.

The shader can found and equipped by inspecting your weapons and armor, going down to the Appearance page, locating the Shader menu, and scrolling to the very last page.

There's a Shades update ready to be deployed but I'm not going to be able to deploy it until later this month. It addresses two issues with loadouts:

- Loadout panel stays open but shows no data after applying a loadout

- Loadout says it will apply to all gear but only applies to equipped gear

Shades already works pretty well as a web app on Mac!

Bungie has fixed the API issue and Shades is operational again. Thanks for your patience.

v1.26 is rolling out now. This adds a reload button to the header that lets you refresh your Shades profile data and shader list.

You can use this button to:

- See new shaders you just picked up

- Sync changes you made to your tags, preferences, favorites, loadouts, or other Shades profile data
