I am getting an error texture when I try to import a custom picture
This is what i get:
http://prntscr.com/bzwn37

This is what i try to get:
http://prntscr.com/bzwo1z

Is it any way to fix this? I've been searching around and i've found nothing
I've tried putting the VTF file and VMF file in the material folder (not custom)
and i've tried the custom.
This is what i have in the text file (I'm uusing 3klip's metode) :

"LightmappedGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "custom/nopeengineer"
}


This is where i have it now:
http://prntscr.com/bzwplp

Pardon my bad english and describing
Hope anyone can help me with this problem

The only issue I see is with your $basetexture path. It should reference the location of the vtf file, which in your case is at tf/materials. You can fix this one of two ways:
  • Change the file path in the vmt to just "nopeengineer", since this should be the entire path after tf/materials (tf/materials/nopeengineer).
  • Create a folder in tf/materials called custom and move the nopeengineer files into it, which corrects their path to (tf/materials/custom/nopeengineer). Or, you can name this new folder whatever you want and edit the vmt accordingly. I would recommend this option because it helps keep all the custom textures in your materials folder organized.

Did the sky actually disappear in-game? That compile log error is unrelated and can be safely ignored; it only affects cubemaps (the images you see in reflective surfaces).

you have a leak from the looks of it

check you dont have radius culling on, and load your pointfile to see where the leak is, then plug it up

I have only one leak and that is not skybox related. I get many brush errors i've checked the cordinates and it sends me outside of the skybox. Far away from the skybox

yea leaks break the skybox, load your pointfile to see where it is and fix it
