    In the hard copy of the unity manual (included with unity):
    C:/.../Unity/Editor/Data/Documentation/en/Manual/GlobalIllumination.html
    It has the steps for creating lightmaps:

    What is the purpose of the last step? Why does the texture need to be applied to the emission slop? And does this mean that the texture should be applied in the emission slot as apposed to the regular diffuse slot?
