If you create environments in Unreal, you need to have this tool, no question about it. It’s not an exaggeration — it completely changes the way you build levels and bring your scenes to life. Adding this kind of detail by hand takes a lot of time, and doing it procedurally is the key!

Decals are applied quickly, precisely, and with stunning visual results — even on the simplest geometry. You can literally take a flat wall or any modular box and, within seconds, turn it into something that feels like part of a real world, full of history and detail.

The best part is how intuitive it becomes once you get the hang of it. You’ll quickly realize that with just a few well-placed decals, you can achieve a huge variety of results. The perfectly placed pivot on each decal corner makes scaling and adjusting polygons incredibly easy, and even a small change in proportion can completely transform the look. This gives you an enormous amount of creative freedom — especially if you work with repetitive modular assets: just vary the decals and suddenly nothing looks the same.

This tool is much more than a simple add-on — it’s a visual accelerator for environments! In fact, Unreal should’ve included something like this natively!

It’s one of those utilities that, once you try it, you wonder how you ever worked without it. If your goal is to create environments in Unreal with personality, detail, and visual rhythm, this plugin is an absolute must-have in your toolkit.
