(Dynamic Lighting) DM view works, but Players see a completely black map.

Im having a problem where when I change my view to "As A Player", my whole map is black. But when I'm working as a GM, my map is actually processing Dynamic Lighting properly. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?

Did you set up the tokens with have sight or all see light or give them light on the token itself? Here is the wiki page for <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Dynamic_Lighting" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Dynamic_Lighting</a>

I have noticed that sometimes I have to add dim "0" to tokens so that "has sight" works... I say sometimes because I can't seem to nail down when it happens and if I later undo the dim "0" they continue to work properly.
yeah i've set the tokens up to have light and sight, but no matter what combination of both i use i still get the same conclusion

Select the token and press ctrl-l. I had the same issue and never figured out how to fix it, but this trick lets you see what they see just the same.

Did you give yourself permission to use/move/etc the tokens you are trying to see through? That's what always catches me up when I'm switching to view as a player.
