If Lara and some others enemies look ok, then i guess that your problem is how you light your room.

I know that imported object with strpix3 are affected for the "ambient room light setting", dark ambient mean dark objects.

Maybe you like to put dark the room and then add spot lights, but i don't know if spot lights will affect imported objects.

like i said, i am guessing.

light your room 1st like you do with a room with 0 ambience. raise your room ambience to 80 or similar. ugly huh? add a shadow blub to the room, set the 'out' real big and 'int' to 0. and just change the value of 'in' until it looks like the darker room you created before. if there are walls blocking your way of the blub, copy one there.

In the secound picture i see the far wall very dark, this mean that your deaful ambient light in the room is very dark, and you are using a spot light.

sorry, spot lights will not light the objects.

That's why, because this object is original (not imported by Strpix3.) or if this second object was also imported then it was placed with a brigh room ambient light.

Only imported objects will get this problem.

Read the jilliboy post. i am tired to tell again and again..., IMPORTED OBJECTS WILL HAVE THE CURRENT AMBIENT ROOM LIGHT WHEN THEY ARE PLACED.
