Use this guide when your Unity project uses Universal Render Pipeline.

​
Set up URP

1

Install URP

In Window > Package Manager, install Universal Render Pipeline if it is not already installed.
2

Assign a URP asset

In Project Settings > Graphics, assign a URP asset.
3

Use a 2D Renderer

For Sprite-Lit materials, make sure the URP asset uses a 2D Renderer.
4

Set the Pixelate profile

In the assigned PixelateProfile, open Normal Map and set Material Pipeline to URP.

​
Capture

Follow Quickstart or Animation capture. Pixelate uses the selected profile pipeline while rendering and restores project render-pipeline settings after capture.

​
Use a lit sprite material

1

Create a material

Create a new material.
2

Choose the shader

Set the shader to Universal Render Pipeline/2D/Sprite-Lit-Default.
3

Assign textures

Assign the generated sprite sheet as the main texture and the generated _NormalMap.png as the normal map texture.
4

Assign the material

Set the material on your Sprite Renderer.
5

Add a 2D light

Add a 2D light to the scene so the normal map can react to lighting.
A URP project using a 3D renderer will not light Sprite-Lit sprites the same way as a 2D Renderer. Use a 2D Renderer for normal-map sprite lighting.
