How to set "Emission Color" in Unity 5 Standard Shader? [SOLVED]

[indeed]

Hi, I'm trying to make a glowing object pulse, so I'd like to access the emission color property of the Standard Shader. I can't seem to find it. I was trying to use "Named Color" in "Set Color Material" and making it "_EmissionColor" and "_Emission" but that didn't work...and when I drag in the component from the GameObject, it's not listed as a property to set.

Oops, my fault. I wasn't triggering the event correctly. Using "_EmissionColor" as the "named color" works.

Hey, just a note for anyone else animating _EmissionColor, there is a strange bug (I think in Unity, not Playmaker) where the Unity Standard Shader sometimes does not see the emission is "activated". This is fixed by changing the emission color to anything above zero (full black) in the Inspector.

Thanks for sharing the solution.

It's good to report bugs like that to Unity directly, especially with new features like this =)
