Would this work to light 2d Sprites with normal maps? Im building a 2.5D game with 2d Sprites and a perspective camera

In principle it should, I’ve never tried it though - that might be a fun experiment. If you’re using point or cone lights you’d have to be mindful of the exact depths that your sprites are drawing at.

Thanks for the answer. At first I'm planning on testing with directional lights, but also intend do dabble into point and cone lights too. Thanks for the tip!

Let me know how it goes!

Oh, and you’d also want to make sure the UV coordinates of the regular sprite and the normal mapped sprites are correctly aligned with each other.
