Envmap + no lights = dark scene

But @donmccurdy gltf viewer does just fine with envmap and no lights, why? What is the magic setting?

So far the only major difference is that there (as well as here) PMREMGenerator is used - if that is the explanation, then I guess the darkness is basically a bug?

edit: aaaand yes, that was it. Environment maps other than what PMREMGenerator generates are just not useable

EDIT: please go to @looeee thread instad.

Sorry, this statement is wrong. More details here:

@makc3d seems between us we tested LDR and HDR but only equirectangular maps, not cube maps :unamused:
