I bet you are trying out a terrain freshly exported from Easygen?
If you check the “insert in skybox” option in Easygen, the program creates a box around your terrain. However, it doesn’t texture it with a real sky texture but with “common/caulk”. Because caulk is a non-drawable texture, the game is confused about what it should draw. (Or better, it doesn’t draw anything where the caulk texture is. You just see the previous screen with new stuff drawn on top.) This effect is called the “Hall Of Mirrors” effect. (Mostly refered to as HOM.)
To stop this from occuring, you could set r_fastsky to 1. However, this will make the sky black and will not stop others from seeing HOM.
To stop the HOM effect from happening, texture the skybox with a proper sky texture.
