Using an emission map on Unity

Summary

In my previous post, I use an emission without textures. Now let’s use a textures. It’s called an emission map in Unity.

Emission map has color only in areas where it can emit light. And darken areas are don’t emit light, but it displayed Albedo.

Prerequisites

• Unity v2020.3.20f1
• macOS v11.6

Steps

First, download a image as emission map for learning on the following article:

Control Albedo color in your material. e.g., choice red.

Next, assign a texture for emission to emissive material.
