whats the problem?

Sounds like your video card can't handle the large textures.  The game is supposed to auto-detect the maximum texture size supported and scale down to that, but maybe you have crappy drivers.  Try with gl_highres_textures 0.

As for the "Line 24 is incomplete" error, your map file got screwed up somehow.  You might be able to open it in wordpad or another text editor and figure out what's wrong.

i tried gl_highres_textures with same results.

the line 24 error doesnt matter if its just the map because it was just a test map to see if i could use the textures.

Can you narrow it down to a specific texture causing the problem?
