FX Shaders
Use the included FX Shaders to make your Sprites even more awesome:
Glass
Lava
Liquid
Mega Stack
Full Control
The Material Inspector does not only give you full control over all properties and tinting, but you can also use Photoshop style Masking to occlude areas of your sprite from Emission and Reflection.
Lighting
The Standard Shader can operate with either Multiple Lights, only Directional Light or be just Unlit(reduced feature set).
NextGenSprites also allows Shadow Casting on all Shaders and Shadow receiving(!) on a special Shader set.
à la carte
With its dynamic "Toggle as you need" Workflow, NextGenSprites allows you to only use the Features you need on a per Material basis.
Intuitive and well Documented
The Custom Material Inspector is not only easy to use, but each section and feature sports a help button to jump you straight into the corresponding Wiki entry. You can also export and Import properties to materials, perfect for Animations.
Scripting and Playmaker
With the included Helper Methods and Playmaker Actions, changing or animating the Sprites Materials at runtime becomes super easy!
Note
Needs Shader Model 3.0
