This is probably happening due to not replacing your Normal en specular maps.
When creating a new object, you need to replace 3 image files. - Texture (The file that will allow the mesh to look like u want)
- Normal/Bump map (This allows the details to look more prominent
- Specular (This file decides the lighting of your mesh)
Your issue might be the specular map by the looks of it.

Hey Kate,
I am sorry that i didn't get back to you a few days ago. I am currently in a situation with my dying father, so that night i had to stay at his side for the night. I just got back behind the pc in all those days.
However. I did try to open your link, but i can't open it, need authorisation.

After receiving authorisation from you and your boyfriend, i was able to take a look at your file.
This is the result after my slight modification;
I have replaced both the normal/bump map and the specular map. And the picture above is the result. There is a thread on this forum, that will allow you to download a set of speculars and a blank normal map. I would recommend you look for it, and download those. You will never fail with those files
If you want to try on your own to fix it, make sure you replace the right files at the right spot. In this specific package, when u are in the warehouse, there is an order that will allow you to place them correctly.
I've added another image about the warehouse tab, and highlighted three DST files, and gave them numbers.
1: This is the texture file, so every swatch will look similar like this 2: This is the NORMAL MAP. Put your blank NORMAL MAP in here. 3: This is the SPECULAR MAP. Put your blank spec map in here.
Or i just could simply send you the replaced version that i showed in the first image, depends on what you prefer.
Hope this helps you out, and again sorry for the long wait.
