Caulkbox? Did you add a caulkbox?
Is your light strong enough? Perk machines give off light, but is your light source too dark?

I'm not sure what a caulkbox is, so therefor that must be the problem

Just add a hollow box of caulk around your map, make sure there is no gaps, and apply your skybox texture on the inside. This might not be the reason though.

This is what i see..

I added the skybox, (dont mind the missing textures on the door) but it doesnt seem to be looking right..

Then I'm not sure what could be causing it, I was going to say missing textures, but that doesn't look like the case?

- Make sure you have a hollowed out caulk box around your entire map with the inner faces a sky texture (doesn't matter which one)
- Make sure your world spawn settings are properly set to light your map
- Add a light grid volume brush around your entire playable area
- Add reflection probes to all rooms and areas of the map
- Add additional lights to fix anything the world spawn settings didn't light properly

The black weapon models and zombies is most likely caused by having no light grid volume around your map, like Jbird632 mentioned. To create it, draw a brush that encompasses your entire map and give it the 'Light Grid Volume' texture found under the 'tools' texture section in radiant.

Light grid volume is missing. It's in the tools sections in radiant.
