Box-projected decal from the depth buffer
In your harnessGodot shaderMIT
Project a decal onto whatever geometry lies inside a box: the box's pixels rebuild the scene position from depth, move it into the box's local space, discard outside the box, fade on steep surfaces, and draw a procedural emblem or an assigned image.
What it takes and gives
- Shader type
- spatial
- Render modes
- unshaded, cull_front, depth_test_disabled, depth_draw_never, shadows_disabled
- Parameters
- depth_texture (sampler2D), decal_texture (sampler2D), decal_color (vec4 = 0.95, 0.75, 0.1, 1), accent_color (vec4 = 0.08, 0.08, 0.08, 1), opacity (float = 0.9), angle_fade (float = 0.4), edge_fade (float = 0.05), stripe_count (int = 10) and 1 more
- Use it on
- A unit BoxMesh node scaled and rotated to the decal volume; its local Y is the projection axis., Optional: a decal image for
decal_texture. - Result
- A yellow and black hazard disc painted across the floor and wrapping onto the crate inside the box.
- Renderers
- compatibility: compiled and rendered, forward plus: not verified, mobile: not verified
- Placement
- res://baltor/godot_shaders/depth_decal_projector/
Limits. Projects onto every opaque surface in the box, including moving characters; filter with layers if needed. Transparent objects are not in the depth buffer. The decal does not receive lighting (unshaded). Reconstructed normals are flat per pixel quad and can flicker at depth discontinuities.
