I was thinking it was OK.... and would not mess up.. so i put the BSP into my nsp map folder, try to load the map on my server.. but when it trys to load it crashes... Help!
The compile tools have issues with the period character in the filename. Try using Nem's batch compiler, with HLFix, and Cageys latest compile tools (located in a sticked thread in the main forum).
This will fix your problems.

Well... my friend used the Valve hammer to compile his map and it works fine :/...
And i don't care if anyone spams my e-mail. i only use it for my steam acc and for signing onto website
.
Ok, i'd still try it with cagey's tools though...
You should have : csg,bsp,vis,rad. It looks like for one your calling csg twice and then vis. Not that this matters atm as csg isn't even running.
Oh yeh, make sure the wad files are in the same drive as the compile tools.

i would use zoners compile tools (no offence cagey) but when i run a map with cageys compile tools, it never wants to do the lighting so its like fullbright is on. and when i use zoners compile tools everything is kosher.
Have you checked for errors if the map to see if the compile tools aren't running properly. The only reason it would be full bright is if:
a) you have a billion lights all maxed out on brightness
b) the compile didn't work properly (often a leak, but can be lots of things)
Maybe zoners doesn't catch the error, so the map won't really run smoothly when your done.

well i get the error from it
"lighting was not performed because no lights were found in your level, i assume you dont want to run around in pitch blackness!"
yea um, lol
i have tons of texlights in the map (look at the ns_fenris remake team cargo hive c on page 11 or so)
it wants a point entity of light, apparently it dont like texlights even if they are defined. im no n00b to mapping, have mapped since ns 1.0. i think its just code related.

so... put a point entity in and turn the intensity down to 1...?
Yup 
The minimum requirements for a map to do a full compile are:
- at least one light entity
- at least one info_player_start
- no leak

Ahem, it will still compile without an info_player_start, except you'll spawn at the origin of the map. But yeah, it will still compile fully.
Just add a light enviroment and it will be happy most of the time (well for me atleast)
well i dont know what compiler you use, but you dont need a light to make the level compile right (or at least i have never had to)

Did you read the thread? We were talking about Cagey's mod of the tools that need 1 light entity to work.
