What is current state of light plugins?

Hello guys, I'm completely lost. What is current state of the light plugins? Is it possible to achive something like this https://pixijs.io/pixi-lights/demo/index.html in pixi v5?

Thank you very much.

Please add an issue on the pixi-lights repo as this is relevant just to that project. Pixi-lights is a plugin maintained mostly by @ivanpopelyshev and is not part of the core repo, so it gets less attention and likely needs to be updated. If someone out there is interested in helping to maintain that project let us know.

@bigtimebuddy We can always transfer issues within the PixiJS organization :)

Did not know that! Thanks @SukantPal. I don't see that on the GH app. Will check it out on desktop.

So what I observed:

• plugin works with pixi v4
• port to v5 is in the hands of a nondeterministic god v5 #41
• after all, maybe like me, you don't need full-blown lights for your 2d game, try to check masks this https://pixijs.io/examples/#/masks/filter.js
