I've had a similar problem before and it was because a cubemap was
pointing at the textures. Try putting the cubemap back in the room but
not pointing it at anything. That worked for me.

I had this same problem- Replace any textures that have the word "model" in them. Model textures can't be used. (eg. models/props_c17/furniturefabric003a)

The easiest way to do this is to browse your used textures- check the box that says "Only Used Textures" (in bottom left corner of texture browser)- and use "model" as your filter.

Any textures that come up need to be replaced.

I had some work for awhile too, then I got this problem. If they work- kewl. If the textures start to go black- keep this in mind.
