⚙️ The Problem
Transparency in URP struggles with intersecting geometry. This is especially problematic in 2.5D games, where sprites can overlap other sprites or transparent surfaces such as water.
Billboarded sprites have their own problems: their flat geometry can intersect nearby walls or the ground when rotated to face the camera.
Finally, standard sprite lighting treats sprites as flat surfaces, making it difficult to create convincing volume.
✅ Our Solution
True Alpha Sprite is a toolbox of shaders and techniques designed for sprites in 2.5D environments. It provides Order-Independent Transparency for sprites, along with billboarding, depth and grounding correction, and a cylindrical light proxy that creates the appearance of volume on flat sprites.
Perfect For
2.5D games
Billboarded characters and NPCs
Sprites rendered in water or other transparent surfaces
Particle and sprite effects
Foliage and vegetation
⚠️ True Alpha Sprite is an extension for True Alpha Transparency and will not work without it.
🛠️ Compatibilities
Unity 6 and above
Universal Render Pipeline using either Forward or Forward+
