This is driving me nuts. The sets that EA provides don't match under certain lighting conditions. Here's what I mean:

These don't match.

But hey, these do!

The patterns in both are the same. I didn't futz with them at all. The problem seems to be in the edges, since they go dark under some conditions but not others.

Trying to make the sets match by very carefully adjusting the colors doesn't work very well, because it's very hard to be exact, and if the lighting conditions change then it might not match anymore.

So, has anyone created a fix for this issue?

If not, has anyone created walls that have a left and right border like these? I'm trying to use them to create a particular look, and the ones that have baseboards or crown moldings don't work, although the base game versions of those aren't all borked so badly.
