GoldSrc does not use materials; instead, textures are used directly, and flagged either via name in a WAD or by metadata in an MDL or SPR. Information about a texture's "material" is instead stored in materials.txt and MAT files.
If a material is missing, it will produce the infamous Source pink and black checkered pattern. A white wireframe is not a missing shader, but instead a missing shader.
