lighting problems on models

This may be a silly question, I made just a simple box in MED, but in WED when i run the level the box model seems to be ignoring the lighting, so the box is brightly and evenly illuminated and yet the level geometry blocks behind it and around it are shadowed and lit by the lights.... any ideas why? Thanks!

which gamestudio version you have?

i'm using 6.50. actually i sort of figured part of it out. In Med the origin wasn't in the center of the model, that seemed to fix it. there's still a problem though. Now that I moved the origin, the model is (for instance) lit by the blue light that's in the level, BUT... it's evenly lit, so I lined up 6 of the boxes touching each other down a hallway and the one farthest from the light is dark, and each one getting closer gets brighter. it's even though, it's not a gradual change (if that makes sense). I guess I don't understand how the lighting is applied to the models. do i need maybe more polygons on the flat surfaces so the lighting can get re-applied to each polygon, thus creating a gradual change in brightness across the model? Thanks
