Developer Notes

it was removed as it is no longer part of the GBuffer and not easily available in later passes. We might add a visualize showflag but that would be another feature.

Description

The Buffer Visualization for DecalMask is no longer an option. Also, when looking at the Buffer Visualization Overview the DecalMask slot has been removed.
