RemarksA decal is a Material projected onto other geometry. Static decals can be used to add variety to a scene: posters on walls, dirt on objects, puddles on the floor, etc. Dynamic decals are created by the game logic based on events in the game: bullet holes at a point of impact, blood splatters, foot prints on the ground, tire marks on the street, etc.
The visual properties are defined by a decal material (see Material). Note that it is not possible to use the same materials as used for regular meshes. Decals need to be rendered with special vertex and pixel shaders and therefore require a different Effect than meshes.
The properties Width, Height and Depth define the bounding volume of the decal. The decal material will be projected onto meshes within the this bounding volume.
Cloning: When a DecalNode is cloned the Material is only copied by reference (shallow copy). The original decal node and the cloned decal node will reference the same Material.
