How to use Iray Decal Nodes in DAZ Studio

Decals can be used to project additional details onto existing objects. Say a tattoo on a character, some graffiti on a wall, or a logo on someone's t-shirt.

Traditionally you'd have to extract the texture file, amend it outside of DAZ Studio and then bring it back, hoping it works. Any minor change would require another trip to the texture editing app. A decal on the other hand is an independent object that's easy to size and move into position and can be thrown onto a variety of objects without having to touch their textures.

Iray decals are a tad tricky to get going, but I hope I've explained everything you need to know here. I'll also throw in how to handle transparent logos and how to make your own transparency maps in Photoshop.

Enjoy!
