you did something wrong with the modeling or texturing in the map.....check your textures and make sure that they are 256X256 or 512X512...it says that you have triangles...please post a picture of your map and check with max go under file>import filetype wrl. and in your haloce folder should be a file wich is called in this case splinter.wrl then uncheck all three boxes when it comes up in 3ds max

You can go beyond the skybox limit...wtf? Something is wrong with one of the triangles and the material (shader) applied to it.
