Map file seems malformed or something. You will need to delete the brush that is causing the problem, the problem with that is knowing which one it is.
I can't even load the map.
If you did not make a backup, you cannot restore a previous version. I also do not know how it got corrupted, did the .vmf ever work? You can try opening the .vmf in a text editor, and start deleting solid {} blocks inside but it will still take forever for you to delete the right thing You can look into hammer autosave folder, if you had that enabled and having touched other maps with hammer yet.
If you uploaded the map, we could look at it and point out the error location.
Ok

I can't say without looking at the whole file.

Hey I needed only the VMF files to check out, but alright. The file structure is alright, the files can be parsed properly. What's not alright is that for some reason there is a brush in each file that has "not a number" coordinates. For each of the two levels, open them in a text editor, search for "nan", and delete the whole parts - until you reach the bracketed solid {} around the found text, and delete that too. That's akin to deleting a brush per each of the two files. The offending brushes have this id property: "id" "667" If you are interested in making more sense of what you see there, load the files in Notepad++ and change the "language" to C# or similar. That way you get [-] buttons in the left gutter area that you can use to collapse the brackets in the text view. hth

Yeah, remove the sides and stuff all to and including the enclosing solid {}. The braces you see there basically form a hierarchy of things, and a solid represents a brush, a side a brush face with the 3D orientation and texturing info and so on.
Sorry for this, I just have to make sure, I made a backupo but don't want to destroy it so this i delete https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/350531/e368823b-c8c2-4f2f-b7d3-c571b62fa604/sdvsd.PNG
