[@carlosrivadulla8903]

pls can u cover custom DBuffer decal responsing ?

[@SanyaBane]

How do you set that certain materials/objects (e.g. your character, some types of walls, some types of objects) does not display Decal effect on itself? In Unity I did it using Stencil Buffer, but I'm not sure if it's also possible in Unreal (not a lot info regarding this on youtube)

[@thegamedevcave]

on any given mesh actor (or component) you can disable "recieves decals" and it'll ignore decals being applied to it :) good question, i forgot to point that out!

​@@thegamedevcavethis switch turns off all decals. but let's say you want to add blood (usually a decal too) but not accept FX one... especially wonder of possible solution in UE5
