Decal Technique For Hard Surface Environment

In this tutorial, I’ll show you the Decal Technique for Hard Surface Environment which I used in my latest project. We’ll create a sci-fi wall using Face Weighted Normals approach and UE4 DBuffer Decals.

Ah? Do you want to create your own luxury spaceship? Look no further!
This technique can save a lot of your time and you can create even 100-meters spaceship holding high texel density without baking normal maps and texturing.
