dod_strand lighting problem.
I followed Jimer Lins guide on using custom maps in SFM all went well except for one thing: the bunkers which i believe are custom for the map don't have any lighting everything else in the map seems to be working just fine.
here's how it looks in sfm: http://i.imgur.com/mGCoXAU.jpg
here's how it's suppose to look: http://i.imgur.com/UalzrEc.jpg
oh and I'm not sure why there's a set of lines like that in the sky anyone know what it is or how to get rid of it? :|
any help is greatly appreciated!

I tried buildcubemaps in the console but everything just ends up blank all i can see in the camera is white, i tried reloading the map and same thing.

I'll start looking at that video thanks.

EDIT: i tried buildcubemaps in the game window and yeah it was all white again but i turned on noclip and found i spawned inside something but the bunkers are still as they apper in the original image.

Well i used BSPSource to decomplile the map this time instead of Vmex and after loading it in SFM again the bunkers seemed ok but the rest of the maps textures didn't load so i used GCFScape to extract the materials folder and i copied that to SFMs dod folder.
That got the textures back but some items where missing one bunker looks fine the other has parts of it missing... http://i.imgur.com/GR1b7f8.jpg

I think i should give up on this map and move to another one.
