Texture brighter on material than expected

As mentioned above I tried darkening it and unfortunately this doesn’t solve the issue - it under exposes the highlights and excessively darkens the shadows.

well, the other way around it would be to correct the image in photoshop specifically to counter what the lighting does in engine. Its easier than tone mapping…
also it doesnt affect the rest of the scenes or require crazy PP hacks.
