ScenePropDecal

v1.4.8

Builds a unique material for this entity’s meshes from a decal material plus four textures, tiling, and a sweep. No vanilla scene places it.

Find placed ones in the Scene panel with s:ScenePropDecal. See Filter.

Where you put it

Add the script to the entity that has the decal mesh. Every mesh on the entity gets the generated material. The first mesh also gets the tiling and sweep.

What you set

Panel field	What to do with it
DiffuseTexture	Diffuse map. Empty skips it.
NormalTexture	Normal map. Empty skips it.
SpecularTexture	Specular map. Empty skips it.
MaskTexture	Second diffuse map, and the material flag use_areamap. Empty skips it.
UseBaseNormals	On: the mesh vector’s fourth sweep value is 1. Off: 0. Default off.
TilingSize	Tile repeat on X and Y. Default 1.
TilingOffset	Tile offset on X and Y. Default 0.
AlphaTestValue	Alpha-test cutoff on the material. Default 0.
TextureSweepX	Sweep X. Default 0.
TextureSweepY	Sweep Y. Default 0.
MaterialName	Material to copy. Default deferred_decal_material.

Editing any field rebuilds the material. The editor does this on init as well.

What it does

The script copies MaterialName, assigns whichever textures are set, and writes tiling onto the first mesh. UseBaseNormals and the two sweep numbers share that mesh’s second vector.

Where it lives

Managed script. No scene.xscene and no prefab under Native, SandBox, SandBoxCore, StoryMode, or NavalDLC stores it.

Examples

No placed entity. There is no other caller. A placed decal in vanilla scenes is a mesh or a ScenePropNegativeLight, not this script.
