ok, about the skybox, if the box isnt sealed along all edges then it will leak, and the map won't compile, you'll see a **LEAKED** error in the compile window, and you won't get the .bsp (the one you need)
Don't worry about worldspawn yet, you can add them later, they're the settings that can change the lighting of the map.

Yes, when u make the skybox, be certain that all brush edges are touching (not inside eachother). This causes a leak and the map will not compile.

What is the problem making the skybox? and adding spawn points is easy, do you not know how to add them or is there a problem when you try to add them?
These are the first basic things you should learn in mapping, so I suggest you learn them if you want to succeed.

Send me the map (drofder [at] codjumper [dot] com) and I will tell you what is wrong, but I will not be doing anything for you...
