hello

i have a master material with several instances based on it.
in the master i can set decal response to none. however this attribute does not show on the material instances so i cannot specify this property on individual instances.

is there a way to expose this property to the instance?

thanks

From my understanding in your master you can expose the use of how decals effect it using dbuffer and using a switch parameter to control if it can turn on and off. The other this is when using that material you can target the specific object and click on it and turn off recieve decals.

Basically you can go about this several ways easiest way is to do it on the per object basis
