Lighting for 2D Sprites and Flipbooks in Unreal Engine 4 [Tutorial]

First tutorial, sorry for the lack of editing. Hope this helps everyone! Let me know if you have any questions or would like more tutorials on 2D in Unreal Engine 4. ALSO: You can add other texture maps (ex. Spec Maps) the same way you added the Normal Maps. You have to also use a Perspective camera when setting up your game, in order to see the lighting effects. Orthographic camera won't work.
