Problems with lighting in my map - Developers

I've been making a map and for the entire time when I tested it the lighting worked soundly, until I added in a large open area (the rest of my map was semi-claustrophobic enclosed corridors and one house like structure),water, and cube maps. Now whenever I load up my map in game the lighting is disabled (I.E: Disabled lighting in source filmmaker type lighting) and everything looks like the "3D textured view" for the 3D view port. Here is my compile log, please help and thanks in advance [CODE] ** Executing... ** Command: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\bin\vbsp.exe" ** Parameters: -game "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf" "C:\Users\XXXXX\Documents\Firstmap.vmf" Valve Software - vbsp.exe (Feb 13 2017) 8 threads materialPath: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\materials Loading C:\Users\XXXXXX\Documents\Firstmap.vmf ConVarRef mat_reduceparticles doesn't point to an existing ConVar Patching WVT material: maps/firstmap/pl_barnblitz/blendmetalroofsnow_02_wvt_patch fixing up env_cubemap materials on brush sides...

Found a displacement edge abutting multiple other edges. you need to remake the displacement causing this error ,, Stack overflow in neighbors not sure what this is in the vrad part but try increasing the ligtmap scale of the ground textures to 64 or higher

when you do displacements and you want to join at corners make the angles 45 degrees and sew them together and with displacements criss crossing each other you can do either,, make the ends to a point so the 4 displacements join nice or make one square displaement and sew the ends of the others to it [B]EDIT[/B] [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/2gt1rdab6mzdwog/2017-04-06_14-02-34.mp4?dl=0[/url] i made a quick video using your map of what i mean ,, i don't have tf2 installed so i changed the displacements to dev texture so u can better see

[editline]6th April 2017[/editline] Gosh darnit, I fixed the aubbuting displacement glitch but my map is still going fullbright. I don't even know why anymore

Okay new problem, I think I fixed the displacement glitch but now when I go to compile it gets to portal flow and slows down to the point of stopping on the number 4

you need to optimise your level [url]http://www.optimization.interlopers.net/index.php?chapter=notices[/url] will give you some good hints and tips
