Put the entdefs.pk3 (included in the mohaatools) in your main folder, that should work.

@Atomic, isn't that rather responsible for the entities?! :? I'd say: check whether ur project settings are correct. Look the tutorials for beginners, especially in this case http://map.moh-central.net/t.php?id=1 8-)

That is a feature that allows Radiant to render a lot of models while mapping. You can set the distance at witch they turn to boxes by going to "Edit -> Preferences..." and set the value in the box labeled "Model Cull dist:" ( higher value makes them turn to buxes at larger distances )

Could u give us a screenshot of the black terrain? Have u tried giving it another texture?
Asking questions doesn't make u "such a pest", thats what the forum is made for. Nevertheless, I have the slight feeling that u neither have read all the beginner's tutorials nor have used the search button here... :(
