Hi, I’m working on an Isometric game, where I’m using decals under the selected player character, similar to what’s done in XCOM:EU. Recently, I came upon some posts saying that they’re not supported on mobile devices. But those posts were from a few months back and I can’t find any such thing in the decal documentation. So could anyone please let me know if decal functionality is available on mobile platforms? If not, are there any alternatives apart from using plane static meshes at the base?
I have posted this in the forums too, and unfortunately received no reply over there as well. Any confirmation regarding this matter would be of great help to me.
So I got a reply from the forums. It seems decal support is not available for mobile devices at the moment. Here’s a link to the post on the forums:
Unreal Engine Forums: Decal functionality for mobiles devices?
Is there is any alternative for mobile devices now? I do not even know how to make good mobile game without decal support.
I don’t think so. I haven’t anything further regarding decal support for mobiles. Since my game doesn’t have randomly varying surfaces like landscapes, I’m using a plane static mesh at the feet of the character with a masked material.
