Normal Maps On Spine animations with Britesprite Plugin

waffles

Hi just picked up the BriteSprite Unity Asset in hopes i could add some dynamic lighting effects to my 2d game

Asset:
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/britesprite-2d-normalmapper-13823

To set this up you have to do grey-scale version or the sprites with lighting applied from at least 2 directions (up to 5)
Could this be applied to the individual assets somehow so the exported sprite-sheet from spine would have this information available in unity?

If anyone has worked with this asset, or figured out a good way to add a normal map to a 2d character animated in spine.

You already got the asset? Why don't you try it?

That's the plan, the instructions just seemed a bit complicated and I was hoping that someone else had already messed around with it and spine together. I guess I'll let people know if I make any progress.

This may be helpful: Texture Packing - Spine User Guide: Using the Spine Texture Packer separately

"Using the Spine Texture Packer Separately" means you can choose a folder to pack.
You should end up with two sets of images. One folder for the diffuse/original images, one folder for their corresponding normal mapped images. As long as both folders have a 1:1 matching image set, packing them both should result in two aligned atlases.

Make sure to pre-trim your original images to be sure.
