Using Decals in Unity

Theme of the day, how to create a decal on Unity.
Let’s start by explaining what a decal is. A decal is a texture that is applied to a material as if it were an adhesive. Its peculiarity is that it can adapt to a surface.

To create a decal we need a few things, and a few simple steps to follow.
