Even the Interlopers error check doesn't specify anything for this error. I have some vague memories for this occuring in goldsource, it was something about a stretched texture or something...
Well, the problem is that this error is occuring on a displacement! What the heck?

Weird! how did you fix it?

PM me a link if you like and i'll try compiling it if you are still having trouble.

Try setting the texture alignment to world, that usually fixes bad surface extent errors. Not sure how it got onto a displacement, though. Did you VM it or clip it before turning it into one?

surface is too big to have a lightmap

Your displacement is too big. your only option is to shrink the displacement or split it up into smaller ones.
