  2. In Project Settings >> Rendering >> Lighting, Enable DBuffer Decals
  3. In Project Settings >> Rendering >> Optimizations, Enable Movables in early Z-pass
  4. In Project Settings >> Rendering >> Opitimizations, Set Early Z-pass to Opaque and Masked Meshes
  5. Create a New Blueprint Actor, called BP_HISM
  6. In BP_HISM, add a Hierarchical Instanced Static Mesh Component
  7. In the HISM Component, assign the Cube (in Engine Content) as the Static Mesh
  8. Add at least one instance in the HISM Component
  9. Place BP_HISM in the level
  10. Create a DBuffer Decal
  11. Place the DBuffer Decal in the level behind BP_HISM projecting on the platform

RESULTS: Decal renders on Platform and on BP_HISM
