There's heaps of stuff on this, a big part of mapping is problem solving ^_^
A quick google is a great place to start, just the first couple results for you guys

Thanks for your help, I just looked at those two tutorials but got a question. Can I make a smaller version of my whole map, then use propper to make it as a small prop and use it as a 3d skybox??

I guess ya could, use the transform tool (ctrl + M) and have a try
Just remember to only use the main parts/big bits of geometry, since hammer doesn't like extremely small brushes (anything under 0.5 units iirc)

You don't need to resize the map in Hammer, you can adjust the model scale in the model QC to make it smaller.

if you only have displacements in the level place a single normal world brush in it or the compile will crash
