Emission

What is it about?

This page covers the Emission node of the classic node materials in Cinema 4D. It defines a material's self-illumination color and intensity — the source for glowing surfaces and luminous accents.

Emission makes a surface glow and eliminates shading effects. In addition, emission generates illumination on other surfaces with diffuse reflectivity or a diffuse BSDF layer
Note:

This Node is only available when editing a classic Cinema 4D Node Material.

This Node defines the color and intensity of the self-luminous properties of a given material.
