You probably don't need cheats, for now. Try this in your shortcut target line.

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\MOHAA.exe" +set cl_playintro 0 +set ui_skip_eamovie 1 +set ui_skip_titlescreen 1 +set ui_skip_legalscreen 1 +set ui_console 1 +set developer 1

The door error means you have an origin brush that does not have a door brush as part of the entity. So you just need to find that door and rebuild it,

The portal problem wont cause a crash, but portal brushes are normally inside door brushes. So fixing that bad door might help.

light leaking under a wall can be fixed by changing the way the floor touches the wall, or by resizing the pointlight, or sun changing direction angle.

Open the .map file in Notpad. Find the door entity that has only one brush, somewhere near the bottom of the page, and delete the text. It will look something like this.

// entity 4
{
"angle" "0"
"classname" "func_rotatingdoor"
// brush 0
{
( 136 -340 0 ) ( 128 -340 0 ) ( 128 -344 0 ) common/origin 0 0 0.00 1 1 16777216 2176 0
( 128 -344 120 ) ( 128 -340 120 ) ( 136 -340 120 ) common/origin 0 0 0.00 1 1 16777216 2176 0
( 128 -344 120 ) ( 136 -344 120 ) ( 136 -344 0 ) common/origin 0 0 0.00 1 1 16777216 2176 0
( 136 -344 120 ) ( 136 -340 120 ) ( 136 -340 0 ) common/origin 0 0 0.00 1 1 16777216 2176 0
( 136 -340 120 ) ( 128 -340 120 ) ( 128 -340 0 ) common/origin 0 0 0.00 1 1 16777216 2176 0
( 128 -340 120 ) ( 128 -344 120 ) ( 128 -344 0 ) common/origin 0 0 0.00 1 1 16777216 2176 0
}
}

There will also be another one like that, but it wont have an origin brush.
