Look at this tutorial:

It's originally for SWBF1, but it can probably be applied to SWBF2 as well.

I'm just going to hop in and say this: You do not want to change the nearscene/farscene view distances by any drastic amount, especially by extending the nearscene to some unreasonable number. That will force the computer running the map to do a lot of unnecessary rendering for details you won't be able to see very well at a distance. As was suggested by someone earlier in the thread, make sure you have the texture being used by the lowrez model, as a solid color like that indicates a missing texture.
