Title: [Solved] Projecting only the bumpmap with corona decals?
Post by: Bondra on 2023-06-27, 20:42:06

So I have a logotype that I want to be able to project onto different areas/surfaces. But only as a bump map.
These are the results I'm getting. And the one I'm aiming for is number 3. Can this be achieved?

In Corona decal affect base rollout uncheck everything but the bump channel and it should work as you expect.

Thanks for the reply! Tried to untick them all and only go with the bump map. Still got the color for the material (see attachments). Tried to invert the texture as black/white and white/black with no luck. Hmm.

You need to uncheck options in the decal object, not in the material. Look at the very right side of the screenshot in my previous message. Of course you would need to have Corona 10 for this to work, as this is a new feature and not available in previous versions.
