Render sprites with quad instead of polygon?

Hi,

In my game, we have certain scenes where we have a LOT of sprites on screen, that take little pixels each, and don't save a lot of fill rate by being rendered as a polygon. However, since they do have some border around them, Unity generates and uses a 2d polygon mesh to render them. Is there a way to tell unity to use a quad while still using a sprite renderer?

Thanks!

 

Change the mesh type to "full rect" in the import settings.

Ah, have to set the texture type to "Advanced" to have that setting available. Thanks!
