I am trying to use skybox: sky_triage_01
The skybox itself is working, but it cant find any files to build the default cubemaps and any texture using reflections is using the checkered box.

I'm pretty sure that happens with every skybox in TF2; it's just a bug with the game. If you want to verify this, you can simply test out your map with a different skybox, i.e. sky_tf2_04.

You have to build your own cubemaps. Default cubemaps have been broken in TF2 since the beginning, and while they are the cause of this issue, they are not fixable.

You should also work on that areaportal leak.

On that note, could we get an update to CompilePal that automatically hides that message? Nobody needs to know about it anyway.
