    Hi all,
    When I build my scene and look at it through the Vive, the lighting is perfect. However, what you see on the PC monitor is far darker than what you see in the Vive. So while the lighting is perfect with the Vive on, for the video being displayed on the PC screen, it is far too dark.

    This image shows the comparison

    The lighting is perfect when using a First person controller (both in Editor and the build)
    The lighting is perfect on Vive HMD
    But when you are using the Vive, the video being mirrored to your PC screen is far to dark, so anyone that would want to watch you play and see what you see, can basically see nothing but blackness.

    Does anyone know why this is ?
