How can I use the Sprite Light 2D of Unity with Spine ?

Ennio

Hello you all ! Can someone help me please ?
Anybody is using Sprite Light 2D ?

I would like to be able to use Sprite Light 2D using sprites that have been meshed and binded to specific bones in Spine.
So it will follow the bones and bend properly in Unity.

Also I would like to know how to put them on a different Sorting Layer than the "Player" for ex "Player's Light" which would be on top.

So far what I have done is to add it as a children of the bones I needed, using the sprite from the Spine atlas, so it works like a mere sprite (not meshed and binded to the bones) follow it to some extent but for some like the arm holding the rifle and the IKs attached, it would break if the angle they take is too wide.

Thanks ! 🙂

Unfortunately you cannot assign a SkeletonRenderer or SkeletonGraphic GameObject at a Sprite property, since they are not using Sprite components but MeshRenderers.

Also I would like to know how to put them on a different Sorting Layer than the "Player" for ex "Player's Light" which would be on top.

Sorting layers work as normal, i.e. you can add a SortingGroup component to your SkeletonRenderer and set the SortingLayer accordingly.

Thanks a lot for your answer.
I founded another way around using the skeleton render separator. It's not exactly the result I wanted, put that will do.
