Wow this is nice! The windows are very bright though. Are they neon lights?
They’re very bright and it could be done a lot more realistic looking with some static/spot lights, they’re just planes with emissive textures on them.
I just like the glow they give to the surrounding area lol

You gotta love unreal. What you could do is parameterize the emission strength in your material and use a Material Instance instead of the material. This would let you play around with the strength and in fact would enable you to later create a dynamic material instance and vary the light - you could add some flicker to the lights to make them a bit more creepy.
I love the UE materials engine. It’s brilliant.
