UeSpriteMaterial

A simplified material designed for 2D-like rendering of flat meshes or billboards. It is optimized for performance by skipping lighting calculations and handling transparency out of the box.

Inherits from UeMaterial.

🎨 Usage

UeSpriteMaterial is specifically used with UeSprite. It automatically manages the sh_ue_sprite shader which supports specialized features like camera-facing orientation and axis locking.

var material = new UeSpriteMaterial({
    map: new UeTexture(spr_particle),
    color: c_orange,
    transparent: true
});
