The compile process always runs VBSP, VVIS, and VRAD in order, three separate programs.

Each program relies on the output of the one before it, so whenever one of them says "Can't find file", odds are the step before it failed somehow, so it means you have to look further up.

The problem area is here:

So some materials (textures with extra information) are missing, and brush #721329 probably has some sort of corruption in terms of it's displacements.

Use Hammer's "Go To Brush number" command from the drop-down menus and fix/replace/redo that brush.
