Bug with converting sky texture

When converting sky textures, I get these messages:

By the way, these sky textures are from L4D2's HD Sky Textures mod.

L4D2's HD Sky Textures mod

Link to this mod? Thinking its bad parameters in the vmt, maybe you can edit it, or if you can find those sky faces move them to legacy_faces folder manually.

This mod's name is "Informal Skyboxes".
I've tried everything you said, and it doesn't work.

Yeah its bad parameters. I don't know how the engine figures it out to draw them correctly. You can fix by changing $hdrbasetexture to $basetexture in the materials, or $hdrcompressedtexture if it looks bad.

Wow, it's worked after change $hdrbasetexture to $basetexture.
