This means that the program (likely a compiler or map tool for Garry's Mod) tried to run a command, but one or more file paths it's referencing doesn't exist.

#

As such, VVIS is next in the compile, where it tries to use the bsp file, but it doesn’t exist.

#

There is a worse problem where vbsp might crash and then vvis/vrad uses the old bsp that was fine, making it appear like nothing changed ingame.

#

Generally, don’t click continue. Check the log and find out what might be causing the crash. You'll know when VBSP crashes if the log stops suddenly without writing a file. (It won't log a crash.)

"BSP node with unbounded volume" tells me that some brush somewhere may be invalid, or you might have an infinitely-thin brush/vertex group.
Press alt+P to check for problems in Hammer. The "fix" it applies is to remove those brushes, so try and Go To them & re-create them manually.

#

This can also occur if any brushes are touching the map edges

#

You'll always want to leave a margin of about 32 units from the edge of the map. (+- 16384 units on any axis -> 32704/32688 maximum map size across)

As a side note, untick every other box except VBSP, then when you know that the map is fine, you can check them back on again. Should save you a little bit of compile time.

#

...may want to keep "Copy File" ticked on, though. Game is optional.
