It seems like decals can't even paint alpha. Their alpha influences how much they paint onto the projected surface, but cannot change the alpha of the surface they're projecting onto.
That's really all I would need, I think. Shame it also seems impossible...
Updated to #godot 4.5 quite easily, but didn't manage to figure out a good way to do what I wanted with the stencil mask.
I know how to do each part, but unfortunately it appears that decals can't write to the buffer. So I can use a decal to create a stencil mask.
Grr.
I get why artists have a clothed version for public and a nude version for pay, but I don't think I could do that.
Clothes or lack thereof are such a critical part of the flow of an image. It can't be equally good both ways...
It's also one of those things that probably varies from person to person a lot. So an artist might not have glitchy eyes, and therefore think "aww, tangents aren't a big deal, these guys are full of shit-"
If you have tangents in your art, my eyes will glitch out, whether yours do or not.
Maybe it's because of something weird someone said, but people seem to be talking a lot about tangents.
I'm gonna risk being real basic here, but I definitely think you shouldn't draw tangents unless you want the viewer's eye to glitch out. My eyes glitch out on tangents, anyway.
This is one of those cases where "conventional art wisdom" is probably correct.
