I don't know how I managed to make my game look like this but I'd like to keep it this way. Anyway know anything about this? I can't seem to replicate it.

Its usually a bug so I don't think you can use it anyways. Happened during steam pipe transition to me as well.
Usually you can change it to that using mat_ fullbright 1 but its considered a cheat cvar.

There's a bug with mat_fullbright that makes it work on your own listen server, however it shouldn't be on in a public or dedicated server. There are ways to get it to work i believe, but many consider the removal of shadows to be unfair even though shadows do have some benefits.
Shadows sometimes flat-out die when you start a listen server, especially if you're playing with Nvidia drivers. The whole "flashing" thing that happens on nvidia cards on dx8 is actually switching back and forth from mat_fullbright 1 to 0, probably because of some low-level rendering bug.
honestly this would be better to play with than having shadows clip through walls if someone's touching them and being like, "oh guys there's a soldier behind that wall I see his shadow".
it's a shame that it can only be enabled via sv_cheats 1,
i feel like it would offer so much more visibility

I was going to make a post about how we should all email valve and try to get this removed as cheat.
Then I remembered I play demo.
