Hey all, I have imported my image maps into the right channels it seems, but not sure if the emission map have any strength at all. On his lower arm there should be a couple of emissive leds. The map is, as I am used to, black except those areas that are supposed to glow. Is this the right way of doing this or am I missing out on some settings? Thanks!

Hi...

The problem is all your maps are too dark to generate a good glow effect. Generally light colors give the best glow effects, dark colors the worst.

Please see the section on Glow Maps below. This explains what you need to do.
