IIRC, Skyboxes force themselves to the bottom layer of whatever's being rendered on your screen. So while they impact vvis (I think), you can still see through them if you try using them as walls.

Either come up with another way of blocking visibility that doesn't involve skyboxes, or roll with it and spruce it up a bit.

Do a full compile to see if they work if they still dont you may need to add areaportals to the openings to seperate each section.

I had this problem but it went away when i did a full compile. Your going to have to add areaportals to your doways between the areas now that should fix the problem.
