so, i when i tested my map by myself, i made sure there were no errors, and there weren't. I tested it multiple times and everything went right, i packed it when compiling and nothing seemed to be out of place. But, for some reason, when played in the server, it turned out to be on fullbright, and it never ever happened when i tested by myself. Why does this happen and how can i fix it ASAP?

did you compile with HDR or LDR?
you can read up on this for lighting https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/VRAD

There is no MDR in Source, only HDR and LDR (which is just a lack of HDR)

Uncheck the HDR option in the run map dialog. While you're there, make sure VRAD is set to run. Run VVIS in Normal or Fast to make sure that VRAD does light bounces for realistic lighting.
