Does any one knows if this AppGameKit shader pack can work on Dark Basic Pro?

definitely NO.
DBPro = DirectX = HLSL (shader language),
AGK = OpenGL (ES) = GLSL (shader language)

It can't work with DBPro from the box.
But you can convert it from GLSL to HLSL.
In such simple shaders syntax will be much similar. (such as vec4 = float4 )

Yes you could translate the shaders from GLSL to HLSL also AGK's syntax isn't pretty far from DBpro so translating the lib is also possible.
Not sure if I will translate it to HLSL and DBpro in the future...but better don't count on me for the translation, as AppGameKit support comes first
