<number> degenerate faces
Degenerate faces are faces that are computed to have no or negative area. This may cause lighting problems.

This could also have something to do with transparency in textures.
You have 24 degenerate faces reported in the compile log
BuildVisLeafs: 0...1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...Out of memory or address space. Texture quality setting may be too high.
If I remember correctly, this should kill your game as soon as it opens but if it doesn't then I don't know what's happening here

After checking your file manually I decided to use the interlopers compile log checker which didn't give me much more info https://web.archive.org/web/20180213200549/http://www.interlopers.net/errors/ (it's an archived page but still works) and I recommend you do the same in the future
