Replied in other thread, but long story short is that support for multiple textures per sprite is planned for 4.8. It won’t be specifically for Android texture compression, but with a custom material that pulls RGB from first slot and A from second, it could certainly be used for that (as well as for normal-mapped sprites, complex materials that need a mask texture, etc…).

Note: You can work around now if your source assets are already atlased, you could create one material instance per atlas page that references separate alpha texture as a non-sprite texture sample. (You could even do it if they aren’t atlased, but you’d have a plethora of loose one-off materials that might be annoying to work with).

Cheers,

is now checked into main branch and will be part of 4.8: Allow Paper2D sprite to have more than 1 texture (compression issues) - Feedback & Requests - Epic Developer Community Forums

Cheers,
