decals disappear under baked shadows

Hi.

So decals are disappearing when shadows are baked on them, looks like this

searched a bit and found someone with the same issue >>> Decals not rendered without direct lighting? - Rendering - Unreal Engine Forums

he got a reply which apparently worked but im not having any luck

did a search for BaseEngine.ini and found it

added lines

no new mode. decal still cut off by shadows.

what am i doing wrong?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay! You need to put that in the BaseEngine.ini file found in the folder located here:

C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\4.1\Engine\Config

Instead of the project’s ini. Then you will have the new blend options. Please let me know if this helps!

Hi , no worries. I got the same answer over at polycount and that did the trick.
