Want opaque sprite over lens flare

Questions & Answers

Hi,

I’ve got a lens flare under a sprite to make it look like its glowing. I only want the glow to be around the edges of the sprite though. I want the inner area of the sprite to be unlit and not glowing.

How would I go about this? Hoping to avoid creating another camera with culled layers as it may interfere with other things, but I may try it if its the only option.

Thanks!

Never mind, creating a separate camera will culled layers for this worked fine.

Instead of moving my sprite to a higher layer (which for me would create other issues) I created a new lower depth camera for my BG sprites and added the flare to that. I’m getting the effect I wanted which is the ‘glowing’ sprite pasted over the glow.
