Decals in Godot 4 

lmaoo anytime ^^

👍where are you declaring "raycast"?

@@eliyahumedia I got my raycast node as a child of my camera and pointing forward (-200 in z axis target position property) Then the variable is declared as an onready var like this: @onready var raycast: RayCast3D = $Camera/RayCast3D Hope this helps!

I'm making a fps game, so in my case you'll need to specify what's applying the decal in the look_at() function. I was using the same code you provided for bullet holes on my FPS game, and I got it to work by putting two arguments in look_at() The godot documentation says it takes two arguments: the thing the node is looking at and the normal - look_at(Vector3: target, Vector3: up) decal.look_at(head.global_rotation, raycast.get_collision_normal()) "head" being a node3d that houses the camera for my FPS player character. Could also be the player's body rotation if it's something like a top-down shooter. Hope someone in the same predicament as me finds this useful!

It was such a hassle! These new decals are gonna make so much stuff easier ^^

Best button on the keyboard lmao

Very fair, nicking the shader code from Godot 4 source could be doable as a temporary measure 🤔

It's stable; go use it! :D

@@jimmio3727 Just because it says it is stable doesn't mean it is

Thanks a bunch! I'm trying so hard to make my jazz nicer to watch 😭

I swear that guys always had it in for me xD

Thanks duuude c: it was hell on earth to make xD

Thankyou! ^^ Every waking second of editing is agony but it pays off lmao

Definitely! so versatile 🤩

Apparently this guy only answers people giving him praise. I have the same issue and no idea.

someone got it yet? heeelp

Thankyou! means a lot

I'd use a timer and if the player is moving you could instantiate a decal every half a second or so. The raycast shoud be pointing to the ground rather than to the front of the player.

Decals work on any mesh; so yes you could. Mobile only supports 8 per mesh though, so keep that in mind.

@@jimmio3727 Thank you!

Isn't it! c:

YESSSSS ^^

Yeah it's been a gripe for lots of people for a long time, mostly because its not a trivial problem to solve, especially in a performant way - there were a bunch of tutorials by miziziz and the like to do it yourself previously, thankfully no more 😌
