Missing Textures

I'm using Pakrat095 to pack textures into my map. I'm then using the steps below to build the cubemaps:

Code:
Building cubemaps for LDR & HDR(recommended)
-mat_specular 0
-map <mapname>(Load your map)
-buildcubemaps
-disconnect
-mat_hdr_level 0
-map <mapname>
-buildcubemaps
-disconnect
-mat_specular 1
-mat_hdr_level 2
-map <mapname>(Load different level; clears texture cache)
-map <mapname>(Load your map again)

After all is said and done, I upload the finished product to my server and have a few people report any problems. Here's what we get.

For me, the map looks 100% fine, no missing textures.

For person B they only have a few missing textures here and there but most of the map-say 98% is fine.

For person C they have about 60% missing textures.

To say I'm thoroughly confused would be putting it lightly. Any ideas why this would happen?

It has nothing to do with the cubemaps.
PakRat is broken and won't pack the textures of models. The reason the other person could see a few more then the other guy is that he is either a mapper and has the custom content on his PC already, or the map he played previous had the same custom textures.

I recommend switching to VIDE to pack custom content. Its a bit difficult to understand so watch a tutorial first

One day, one poster:

"X is broken. Use Y."

Another day, another poster:

"Y is broken. Use X."
