After the Operation Wildfire update, many people have run into issues with static props not receiving lighting.
To solve this issue, go to the expert compile window and select the $light_exe command. Then, in the "Parameters" textbox, prepend -StaticPropLighting. For the default compilation settings, your parameters should be -StaticPropLighting -game $gamedir $path\$file.
This will fix your static props and allow them to receive lighting correctly again.
