Adding Decals on water

Unity Engine
1

I’m trying to get CommandBuffer decals to work on a water shader.
But they’re only showing on the terrain beneath the water.
i tried all possible Blend’s but nothing works. any ideas what I need to change? no idea where to start or whats causing it…
the Water shader is an extended version of the unity water4 shader. Which has this Subshader :

Subshader
{
    Tags {"RenderType"="Transparent" "Queue"="Transparent"}
   
    Lod 500
    ColorMask RGB
   
    GrabPass { "_RefractionTex" }
   
    Pass {
            Blend SrcAlpha OneMinusSrcAlpha
            ZTest LEqual
            //ZWrite Off
            Cull Off
       
            CGPROGRAM
       
            #pragma target 3.0
       
            #pragma vertex vert
            #pragma fragment frag
            #pragma multi_compile_fog
       
            #pragma multi_compile WATER_VERTEX_DISPLACEMENT_ON WATER_VERTEX_DISPLACEMENT_OFF
            #pragma multi_compile WATER_EDGEBLEND_ON WATER_EDGEBLEND_OFF
            #pragma multi_compile WATER_REFLECTIVE WATER_SIMPLE
       
            ENDCG
    }
}

Unity’s water is rendered in forward mode, you cant apply deferred decals to things rendered in forward

:stuck_out_tongue: that makes sense :frowning: will try changing the water to deferred
