Title: NGUI with Unity Sprite packer
Post by: alex.miron on September 15, 2014, 05:33:51 AM

Hello,

I have recently started working with NGUI and I want to use Unity3d's built in sprite packer for packing my atlases.
I can not use UISprites since I can't use sprites other than those in a UIAtlas so I use UITextures and UI2DSprites.
I insert the according packing tags on every sprite but still in the memory profiler I see both the sprites and the atlases.

What is the best way to use Sprite packer with NGUI?
What kind of renderers should I use ? UISprite, UITexture or UI2DSprite ?

I have to release the game by the end of the week and the only thing I still have to do is take care of the memory problems, so it's rather urgent.
Thank you.

It's working now with UI2DSprites only.

Assuming you actually enabled sprite packing in Project Editor Settings, it'll just work. NGUI will use the sprites specified on UI2DSprite, and Unity will pack them automatically.
