Properties

Property group 'Decal'

bNoClip

Type: bool

If FALSE (the default), use precise clipping to compute the decal geometry. If TRUE, decal geometry generation is faster, but the decal material will have to use clamped texture coordinates.

DecalMaterial

Type: MaterialInterface

Modifiers: private, const

Decal material.

DecalRotation

Type: float

Decal in-plane rotation, in degrees.

FarPlane

Type: float

Far plane clip distance.

Default value: 300.0

Height

Type: float

Decal world space height.

Default value: 200.0

NearPlane

Type: float

Near plane clip distance.

OffsetX

Type: float

Decal offset along the tangent.

OffsetY

Type: float

Decal offset along the binormal.

TileX

Type: float

Decal tiling along the tangent.

Default value: 1.0

TileY

Type: float

Decal tiling along the binormal.

Default value: 1.0

Width

Type: float

Decal world space width.

Default value: 200.0

Property group 'DecalFilter'

bProjectOnBackfaces

Type: bool

If FALSE (the default), don't project decal onto back-facing polygons.

bProjectOnBSP

Type: bool

If FALSE, don't project decal onto BSP.

Default value: True

bProjectOnHidden

Type: bool

If FALSE (the default), don't project decal onto hidden receivers.

bProjectOnSkeletalMeshes

Type: bool

If FALSE, don't project decal onto skeletal meshes.

Default value: True

bProjectOnStaticMeshes

Type: bool

If FALSE, don't project decal onto static meshes.

Default value: True

bProjectOnTerrain

Type: bool

If FALSE, don't project decal onto terrain.

Default value: True

Filter

Type: array<Actor>

Component filter.

FilterMode

Type: EFilterMode

Current filter application mode.

ReceiverImages

Type: array<PrimitiveComponent>

Hack: Gears hack to avoid an octree look-up for level-placed decals. To be replaced with receiver serialization after ship.

Property group 'DecalRender'

BackfaceAngle

Type: float

Dot product of the minimum angle that surfaces can make with the decal normal to be considered backfacing.

Default value: 0.0010

BlendRange

Type: Object.Vector2D

Start/End blend range specified as an angle in degrees. Controls where to start blending out the decal on a surface

Default value:

Member Value
X 89.5
Y 180.0

DepthBias

Type: float


Default value: -6.0E-5

ParentRelativeLocation

Type: Object.Vector

Decal location relative to parent transform used with DecalTransform_OwnerRelative mode

ParentRelativeOrientation

Type: Object.Rotator

Decal orientation vector relative to parent transform used with DecalTransform_OwnerRelative mode

SlopeScaleDepthBias

Type: float


SortOrder

Type: int

Controls the order in which decal elements are rendered. Higher values draw later (on top).

Internal variables

bFlipBackfaceDirection

Type: bool

If TRUE, invert the direction considered to be backfacing receiver triangles. Set e.g. when decal actors are mirrored.

bHasBeenAttached

Type: bool

Modifiers: private, transient

TRUE if the decal has already been attached once. Allows for static decals to be reattached

bMovableDecal

Type: bool

If TRUE, then the decal will recompute its receivers whenever its transform is updated. Allowing for dynamic movable decals

bStaticDecal

Type: bool

Modifiers: const

TRUE for decals created in the editor, FALSE for decals created at runtime.

DecalReceivers

Type: array<DecalReceiver>

Modifiers: private, noimport, duplicatetransient, const

List of receivers to which this decal is attached.

DecalTransform

Type: EDecalTransform

Modifiers: const

Determines how the Location/Orientation of the decal are used

Default value: DecalTransform_SpawnRelative

FieldOfView

Type: float

Horizontal field of view.

Default value: 80.0
