Way to have 2D Sprites lit by Lights?

Questions & Answers
1

Is there any way to have lights actually apply lighting to 2D textures, without losing the transparency of the sprite? I have been using the Particles/AlphaBlended Shader to display my sprites.

I would like to have a dark room, and allow the player to use a light to make his way through, but I can’t seem to make lights work.

If there isn’t a way to make the stock lights work, then does anyone have another suggestion? I have heard of many ways to achieve similar effects, but I am not sure of the best approach considering Unity is built different than Engines I am used to.

Thanks

Create a material and use Sprite/Diffuse shader. Drag it to your sprite gameObject to apply the material. Voila!

On the particle renderer material, use a shader that uses lighting.

Sprites-default material does not respond to lights , but unity also supports another shader (Diffuse ) for sprites that supports lighting.

You just have to change the shader in Sprite renderer component
