how do i fix that black bugged mirror and that lightning thing? sorry if my english is not good

I enabled the HDR LDR full compile option in the expert menu, but it looks even worse than before. I just want the interior to be visible without a flashlight, but for the shadows to be noticeable, something like the atmosphere of a sunset. But even the lighting on some models looks awful with incorrect highlights or shadows.

I've been trying to optimize my first map for days because it has a lot of props and that affects performance. It's a map of my school, so there are a lot of tables and chairs. I tried using AreaPortal, but it was full of leak errors, so I gave up. I'm trying Hint and Skip now, but it still doesn't work. I don't know what to do anymore. And besides that, the lighting looks awful for some reason I haven't been able to fix. If anyone could help me, I would be extremely grateful. I've been following this map for two years now, sometimes starting and sometimes abandoning it, and I'm finally determined to finish it once and for all.
