If you want your object to emit light into the environment (that is, effecting nearby objects) via ambient in Firefly enable IDL


You can also make things "glow" by plugging your maps into Alternate_Diffuse channel. They won't emit light but will glow in the dark.


Superfly always has IDL/GI on.

The amount of emission from the Alternate_Diffuse channel is very, very low.  The deep fake is to apply a dark red color to the Ambient_Color chip and set the Ambient_Value to a low value just enough to give the figure a faint glow but not overwhelm lighting.  It becomes apparent when lighting levels are too low and the self glow washes out shadow detail.
