in a map i just made there are black lines along the ground. sort of like a shodow.
when i get close they vanish and they seem to extend from corners of buildings, across the floor.

is there a way to stop this?

Using a model texture?

If it is what i think your talking about then it is projected shadows from an entity that projects dynamc shadows, usually prop_dynamic or a physics entity

This is usually fixed by just reloading the map after building cubemaps
