BabylonJS - Decals


Previous Page Next Page  

Decals are pkes stickers pasted on anobject. The sticker drawing is done with the help of 2d image which is drawn on the mesh (for example, object in the game). In games, consider you have an army firing bullets, the bullet impression needs to be seen on the object. So in Babylonjs, it is done using decals wherein, when you cpck on any object you will draw a 2D image on the place where you cpcked it.

Decals are used to add details on the created mesh – details pke bullets, holes, etc. In the demo pnk given below, we are using an image and adding the same to the imported mesh.

To add decal, you can use the following code −

var newDecal = BABYLON.Mesh.CreateDecal("decal", mesh, decalPosition, normal, decalSize, angle);

Following code is executed to add decals on the mesh −

BABYLON.SceneLoader.ImportMesh("Shcroendiger scat", "scenes/", "SSAOcat.babylon", scene, function (newMeshes) {
   var cat = newMeshes[0]; / /this is mesh shown on the screen.

   // Set the target of the camera to the first imported mesh
   camera.target = cat;

   var decalMaterial = new BABYLON.StandardMaterial("decalMat", scene);
   decalMaterial.diffuseTexture = new BABYLON.Texture("images/impact1.jpg", scene);
   decalMaterial.diffuseTexture.hasAlpha = true;
   decalMaterial.zOffset = -2;

   var onPointerDown = function (evt) {
      if (evt.button !== 0) {
         return;
      }

      // check if we are under a mesh
      var pickInfo = scene.pick(scene.pointerX, scene.pointerY, function (mesh) { return mesh === cat; 
      // this will give all the meshes , but it will pick the mesh whch is same as cat and return true if it is found });
      if (pickInfo.hit) { // if true
         var decalSize = new BABYLON.Vector3(5, 5, 5); //size of decal is defined

         var newDecal = BABYLON.Mesh.CreateDecal("decal", cat, pickInfo.pickedPoint, pickInfo.getNormal(true), decalSize); //decal is created 
         newDecal.material = decalMaterial; //decal material is added.
      }
   }
   var canvas = engine.getRenderingCanvas();
   canvas.addEventListener("pointerdown", onPointerDown, false);

   scene.onDispose = function () {
      canvas.removeEventListener("pointerdown", onPointerDown);
   }
});

In the above demo pnk, we have used SSAOcat.babylon mesh. You can download the json file for SSAOcat.babylon from here −

SSAOcat.babylon

Save the file in scenes/ folder. This will help you get the output as shown below.

Output

The above pne of code generates the following output −

Decals

In this demo, we have used image impact1.jpg. The images are stored in the images/ folder locally and are also pasted below for reference. You can download any image of your choice and use in the demo pnk.
