🔴[Store, Membership, and Socials]🔴 https://linktr.ee/arghanionprime 🔗Patreon https://www.patreon.com/c/arghanionspuzzlebox Unlock next-level decals in Unreal Engine 5 with advanced Triplanar Mapping + POM! In this tutorial, we build a fully-featured triplanar decal system that lets you project textures onto any surface without stretching, warping, or distortion. Whether you're working on rocks, cliffs, curved geometry, or complex environments, this method gives you perfect results every time. We’ll cover: ✔ How triplanar projection works and why it fixes stretched decals ✔ Building a clean UV setup with rotation, offsets, and scaling ✔ Blending the three projections using world normals ✔ Creating a fully controllable Decal Triplanar Material Function ✔ Properly blending base color and normals ✔ How to make decals wrap seamlessly around any shape ✔ Tips for performance and material optimization By the end, you’ll have a production-ready triplanar decal shader that you can drop into any project — perfect for creating believable wear and tear, dirt, graffiti, cracks, leaks, and any surface-attached detail. 💢You want to Support the Channel and get AWESOME Assets?
