What do? This error has caused brushes to not load sometimes..

How can I fix this lighting thingy? I put a basic light entity behind each one but it doesn't always fix it. Let me know if you need more detail.

Whenever i try to upload a bsp or a vmf it just says something about ts temporary directory wtf does this mean

the crate model is: urban_shipping_container01 and there's no blu skin to my knowledge

I'm pretty satisfied whit the layout of the map, but I want to optimize it before artpassing it. I have already done some minor optimization in the form of area portals but they don't really do the trick for all the places, can someone help?

I want to make one but I cant find any tutorials

I've created a lot of maps, but I feel that one of them has reached the stage where it needs to transition to art passing. It turns out that someone who has never properly art passed a map struggles with the process. This is why I need someone to teach me about texturing, modeling, and...

yeah title. i checked the compile log. no bad brushes, no leaks and no visible nodraw heres the vmf

I've looked on the valve dev wiki and used the skybox list there but nothing works, even the default skybox (sky_tf2_04) doesn't work. Also the game isn't launching for whatever reason I don't know if it's bad optimization on the map itself or my computer not being able to handle it maybe even...
