In-progress: Metalness

I have a wierd question.
I imported a teapot from max into quixel and put on a steel material and exported it out for unity 5 metalness. The diffuse is almost black.
Do I need something to get the reflection to come out on the pot in unity?  Like do I need special light set up or something because its just black.

when I took the diffuse map off the model looked closer to what I got in quixel but why would it create such a dark albedo texture?

Have you created the project using the Unity 5 metalness (or any other matalness setup)? It sounds like you're exporting a normal albedo, rather than a metalness one.

You are correct on that. When I created the DDO project I had it at default and not the unity 5 metalness even though I exported it as a unity 5 metalness files. I misunderstood the process. Thanks.

I think, if you created it in a normal profile, you can add Aldebo for Metalness as a map and it might work.
