The default #UE5 sprite material node doesn’t work properly with Paper2D sprites and flipbooks. So I created a custom material function that supports both 'rotate to camera' and 'parallel rotation' (as shown in the video). This works entirely in the material with no Blueprint function needed, making it much... more performance friendly. It even supports normal-mapped sprites and works on regular meshes too! #UnrealEngine5show more

Oh i see what you mean😀. It took me a second to understand but it’s the lighting right? That’s so cool! Can you explain how you did this 🙏

Not just the lighting the whole thing with the "rotate flipbook". Its a bit tricky with Paper2D sprites. I already had a function to rotate sprites on one axis like in "doom-like" games. but getting the rotation working on all axis is a bit more complicated.

Pre-rendered graphics are awesome!

Thanks, I rendered the Mannequin with my free sprite sheet generator UE5 project. (download on my discord)

Looks awesome! Will this be included in your UE5RFX pack?

Yes, I will include it in the next version as a simple material function.

Looks amazing
