    The documentation states decals don't work with path tracing. Is there any plan to implement them? Or are they ruled out because of how path tracing works?

    Thanks

    It's not ruled out at all.
    We can't give an ETA, but it's actually currently under consideration !

    Thank you for the reply. Full disclosure, I work at an animation studio and we're using Unity for development on an animated series. Decals would help unload a lot of work from surfacing artists and allow us to details sets much quicker.
