This one is getting to me and I don't feel motivated to keep working on my current map until I get it resolved. For some reason, when I perform a "Build-pieced.bat" rebuild (Note: before I do, I manually delete the .pk3 files) in c:\oasvn then I copy them to c:\oasvn\baseoa
Also, I make sure I have the correct new textures and shaders in scripts in both places "c:\oasvn\textures" & "c\oasvn\baseoa\textures" etc.
GtkRadiant 1.5 displays them properly but when I use q3map2build or Gtk's "(test) BSP -meta, -vis -fast, -light -fast -super 2 -filter" , it looks like below:
"Build-pieced.bat" rebuild

Any idea what I am missing?
I am able to get rid of the blank texturing below when I create the prt and perform "(single) -vis" but the textures aren't set properly of course.

Figured it out. q3map2 created a shader which I was not including with the rest of the files. It also needs the .tga files it creates in maps/maptitle/. So when I was coping just the map, aas, bsp, etc to use on another PC after building it would look that way.

External lightmaps? Which compile switches do you use?

It does that when you use Quake 1 light-styles in a map.

here is the bat file it generates. I build bsp by itself first, then vis,light, and bspc

"C:\Program Files (x86)\GtkRadiant 1.5.0\q3map2.exe" -fs_basepath "C:\oasvn" -fs_game "baseoa" -game "oa" -vis "C:\oasvn\baseoa\maps\OperationMetro.map"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\GtkRadiant 1.5.0\q3map2.exe" -fs_basepath "C:\oasvn" -fs_game "baseoa" -game "oa" -light -v "C:\oasvn\baseoa\maps\OperationMetro.map"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\GtkRadiant 1.5.0\bspc.exe" -bsp2aas "C:\oasvn\baseoa\maps\OperationMetro.bsp"
Pause
"C:\oasvn\openarena.exe" +set fs_basepath "C:\oasvn" +set fs_game baseoa +devmap "OperationMetro"

I have a flickering light so it sounds like that maybe the cause.
