View source for Shaders in Decals\

The <code>Decals\</code> folder of <code>Source Materials.gcf</code> (and its subfolders) contain shaders used for [[decals]].

*[[LightmappedGeneric]] is used for numerous materials, making it the most common shader for this folder.
*[[VertexLitGeneric]] is used for 36 materials.
*[[UnlitGeneric]] is used for 9 materials.


===Subfolders===
Only three types of shaders are used here: <code>DecalModulate</code>, <code>VertexLitGeneric</code> and <code>Subrect</code>.



==Dedicated Shaders==

The following shaders are more or less exclusively used for this folder:


===Subrect===
* Used in 89 materials in these folders, always in files ending with <code>_subrect.vmt</code>.
* It is also, to a much lesser extent, used in the [[Shaders_in_Effects\|Effects\]] and [[Shaders_in_Sprites\|Sprites\]] folders.

===DecalModulate===
* Used in 55 materials in these folders only.
* See [[Creating Decals#Using Modulation|Using Modulation]] on how to use this.
* Only referred to once (in <code>src\utils\xwad\xwad.cpp</code>) in the released mod code.

===DecalBaseTimesLightmapAlphaBlendSelfIllum===
* Used in the materials <code>decalglasswindow003a.vmt</code>, <code>decalmetalvent004a.vmt</code> and <code>decalporthole001b.vmt</code> in these folders only.
* Replaced by [[LightmappedGeneric]] in numerous materials in both this folder and the [[Shaders_in_Props\|Props\]] folder.
* Not found in released mod code.

===ShadowModel===
* Used in only one material: <code>rendermodelshadow.vmt</code>
* Probably referred once (in <code>src\cl_dll\clientshadowmgr.cpp</code>) in the released mod code.
* Do not confuse with the [[Material_Proxies|proxy]] by the same name.

===Shadow===
* Used in the materials <code>rendershadow.vmt</code> and <code>simpleshadow.vmt</code> only.
* Do not confuse with the [[Material_Proxies|proxy]] by the same name.
