Who knows how to make a AV projection to emulate the projection for example on a wall ?

Hello ,

Depending on what kind of projection you want to try to emulate, this can be rather simple or difficult.

If you want to try to simulate a simple static picture projected onto a wall, you can achieve some basic effect by using an IES light and a decal. For the decal, place a decal, such as the Shadow Square, onto your desired location and replace the texture maps with your desired image. You can adjust the size, offset, and opacity to suit your needs. For the light, select one that you like best and rotate it towards your the decal from your projector. You can adjust the intensity and color to match the image, as well as apply a haze effect to to mimic that of a projector.

If you want to mimic a video, that will be much more difficult, since decals don't support video textures. You would need to use the video material, which doesn't support opacity adjustments and can only be applied to an object with a material.

Good morning,

do you think that in the future decals will be able to support video textures?

I work in the events sector and I often need to show video projections.

it's a big deal for me.

Thank you !
