Unity 2022.1 – Decal Projectors don’t work in Android Build

Unity 2022 is a popular game development engine that has recently been released with a range of new features and improvements. However, some developers have reported issues with decal projectors not working in Android builds.

Decal projectors are an important part of creating realistic environments in games, as they allow developers to add decals or textures to surfaces in the game world. Unfortunately, Unity 2022 currently has a bug that prevents decal projectors from working correctly in Android builds.

This issue has been acknowledged by Unity Technologies, and while they are working to find a solution, there is currently no known fix. In the meantime, developers who rely on decal projectors in their games may need to stay on Unity 2021 or find alternative solutions.

This can be frustrating for those who have already upgraded to Unity 2022 or were planning to do so soon, but it’s important to remember that bugs and issues can arise with any new software release. Unity Technologies has a reputation for addressing issues quickly and releasing updates to address them, so it’s likely that a fix for this issue will be available soon.

In the meantime, developers can keep an eye on Unity’s official forums (see this post) for updates on this issue, as well as to see if any workarounds or alternative solutions have been identified.
