This page provides information on VRayDecal.

 

Overview

The VRayDecal provides an easy way to project one material on top of another regardless of the target UV set. The projected material is placed in an adjustable VRayDecal gizmo that controls its size, placement and projection limits in the Viewport.

Multiple VRayDecals can be stacked on top of each other and their overlapping is controlled by the parameters in each VRayDecal object.

The VRayDecal’s effect is visible at render time only.

The material is projected only on the surfaces within the gizmo.

Workflow

  1. Create a VRayDecal gizmo and place it in the viewport on top of the surface you want to project the new material on.
  2. Create a material from the Material Editor or just pick a ready made material from the V-Ray Material Library Browser and assign it to the VRayDecal.
  3. Adjust the size and angle of the VRayDecal.

 

   

 

Parameters

Enabled – Enables the use of VRayDecal.

Width – Specifies the width of the VRayDecal gizmo.

Length – Specifies the length of the VRayDecal gizmo.

Height – Specifies the height of the VRayDecal gizmo.

Normal angle – Specifies the angle to which the decal is applied onto the surface below.

Fade out – Enables fade out angle.

Fade out angle – Specifies the minimum value of the fade out angle, e.g. if set to 44, the minimum fade out angle value is 44 and the maximum fade out angle value is up to 180. By default it equals the Normal angle value.

Order – Specifies a layering order when multiple VRayDecal gizmos are present.

Mask – Masks the projected material based on a texture. The material must be applied to the VRayDecal.

Exclude – Specifies a list of objects that are not affected by the VRayDecal.
