Hello Vetasoft
Been working with your shader extensions for the last week.However been having bit of a problem using your shaders on an enemy that got movement. Since they will be turning left and right. It seems like it doesn’t support lighting on the sprites backside like normal sprite diffuse material does.
This show an enemy with your shaders that will “support lighting”
This show an enemy with a normal material
Hi @foldergeist_studios ,
We just released version 1.1.9 that fix the lighting axis issue.
Best Regards,
Vetasoft
Version 1.2.0 is available
Generate a sprite is awesome because is support alpha, it’s great for the optimisation of some static nodes.
Hope you like it.

F.A.Q:
How HDR work ? How to active HDR ?
HDR is not a feature made by Shadero Sprite, It must be setup before using it.
If HDR doesn’t work, it’s maybe because “use HDR” is not activate on the Edit > Project Settings > Graphics menu.
After I use some effects, my sprite’s edge got clip out, why ?
The edge is made by Unity, by default SpriteRenderer create a shape around your sprite, to avoid that, you can change the drawing mode from the sprite renderer to “Sliced”
I can’t set Main Texture, I have to use its default texture. Why ?
MainTexture use a preview sprite because the editor doesn’t know what sprite the SpriteRenderer will use. (There is no link between a SpriteRenderer and Shadero Sprite). You can, if you want, use New Texture instead of MainTexture to have your preview and switch with a MainTexture when your shader is ready.
If you have any feedback, questions or recommandations, please ask first here of to support@vetasoft.com, bad review makes us sad because we really want to fix any kind of issue and make Shadero Sprite one of the best tools available on the Asset Store.

New version 1.2.5 is on work and should be ready this week.
With the support of Crtl-D (for duplicate) and the Undo (Crtl-Z)
We are also working on new FX nodes and a better interface.
Hope you like the news !

Version 1.2.5 is available !
Hello,
can you upload a video example showing how Shadero Sprite works on UI Image? For example, making a color change (or other effect) with an animation.
Thanks a lot.
Hey. I’ve been playing around with Shadero the past few days but hit an issue I can’t seem to work through - if a Sprite isn’t apart of a spritesheet, things like OutlineFX work just fine and as you’d expect. However, if the sprite is in a spritesheet, most of the shadero functionality seems to be treating the UVs as coming directly from the source texture and not the individual sprite within the sheet.
Is this just not supported right now? It’s pretty limiting for Anima2d users, then.
Hi JweinhartSW,
Currently, Shadero work only with single sprite, we are working on finding a way to make the texture atlas compatible.
Using a texture atlas with shader is particular because a shader use all the sprites texture to work and doesn’t care about the Sprite Atlas.
That’s why it’s work in some cases like the outline FX or manipulation some colors. Specialy if your using UV.
Best Regards,

Shadero 1.3.1
Shadero 1.4.0 is on the way !
With more featured for Lighting Support such as :
Normal Map and more
Note that 2D Normal Map are a bit complex and hard to create. Even harder than 3D because you need to create every bump like a 3D object.
However they are great tools available like Sprite Illuminator : https://www.codeandweb.com/spriteilluminator
Also, new amazing premade node are coming

Hello
After updating unity to 2017.2 I get this errors from shadero sprite
It’s strange, you can simply delete the file Assets\ShaderSprite\Plugins\Editor\LastSession.asset
if it doesn’t work, try to reinstall Shadero.
Shadero Sprite V1.4.0 is on the way
with the support of the new Lighting Node, just put the lighting Support Node Before the Build Shader Node and that’s it ! 
Shadero Sprite 1.4.0 is now available !
We already working on a new version right now.
Also it’s -30% on the huge mega sale so, make sure to search “Shadero” on the search box

Sorry for asking again, but a I need to know how animate an effect in a UI Image (this gameobject has not sprite renderer)… ¿Someone can help me?
I’m doing the same thing as in the youtube videos step by step, but the the animation of the effect does not work with the UI Image
Thanks a lot.
Hi Aenah,
It’s depend on how you want to animate the effect automatically or manually.
Automatically mean that you doesn’t need to use the animation system. Like our tutorial here :
if you need a manual animation, you can’t do the same as SpriteRenderer because Unity UI doesn’t allow you to use the material value.
However, it’s possible to use a custom script with .SetFloat(“ValueUsedbyShader”, ValueUsedbyShader);
after that, you can animated the value of the custom script instead of the material value.
It’s sound a bit complicated but this is the only way to do it for the UI for the moment.
Hope it’s help
