Vray and decals

[Micha_cg]

Hallo,

it seems to be, the RCM tool will not support decals. Here a short dialog from the rhino forum a few days ago. Could be nice if Vray for Rhino could implement this kind of workflow.

Yup - I know, but this is something VRay will have to implement.

I would try this with the new RCM that we have. I think the previous one had a tiling problem, we're also looking into it because its very possible that we are causing this issue. I think Corey is messing around with decaling tests right now.

It?s good to here that you are trying to work this problem out, I think it?s an important feature to have.
Thanks,
