Easy Decal
#TimeSaver
This package is designed from the ground up so that you can create unique and attractive crosshairs, selection circles, particle effects for your characters and weapons. Decals consist of textures in the form of 2D images with transparent backgrounds. The effects are suitable for developing various projects. The resource includes ready-made materials. If you are familiar with the interior of building a material, then you can choose the textures you need from this asset and insert them into the material to create and customize the effects as you wish. The sample materials are very simple, so it will be easy for you.
