Black (text) decal

[Daankemps]

I’m quite new to Unreal Engine, thus the material system is new for me. I want to add several text on my wall (consider it graffiti), yet everytime I use black text it because invisible or slightly grey-ish.

I import a simple jpg to the engine with text (using a transparent background), create a material with domain ‘Deferred Decal’ and add the jpg as base color. Yet nothing appears to be rendered:

Perhaps I am using a wrong image format, having problems with the opacity or shouldn’t I use black text?

Hi!

Decals is a orthographic projection system. Maybe nothing appears, because Decal actor has wrong direction of projection.
