I've attached a demo.  Lots of little misaligned brushes and stuff that should probably be fixed.

Also, the message needs \n for a newline, not /n.

The new version of arghrad crashes, but I tried with an old version (2.00), and it compiles.  If fixing the brush alignments in the map doesn't fix the crash, you can use the old version (attached) to light it.  I also attached a lit version of the map.

Another thing I just noticed - if you stand in the water and look to the sides, you can see through the ground in the high path.  You should never use sky brushes to cover other areas of map, as you can simply see through them.

 To be quite honest I think that my unlit version looks better :p. Atleast for me. And the compiler did not crash. It just compiled for 15000 seconds :p.

I do not see the annoying slope being a problem, to be honest.
I do not let myself be bothered about those small misalignments much. To really fix them all I'd have to do a lot of work or start over. I just try to fix those, where I can just drag 1 brush (the misalignment is not smaller than 1 unit). And I'll fix that misalignment what caused you not jump on top of that house. Hope that'll fix the ghost brush.

Yootz, I understood from the modelling topic that the turtle was near to finish. Is it finished now?

I'll try some other sky then. But to be quite honest, I don't feel myself comfortable at fixing those paper thin walls and blabla. Maybe at some other map :p.

Looks so bland without lights, though admittedly, the lit version isn't much different.  You could tweak the parameters to make it look much nicer, though.  I'd suggest using the sky that's used on arenaball, as it has kind of a foggy/overcast appearance.

Yes, its fog.  It was discussed earlier in the thread.
One of the posts:

"sky" "pbsky1 fogd .5 .5 .6 .0015"
"classname" "worldspawn"
"maxteams" "2"
"team1" "red"
"team2" "blue"
"gamemode" "84"
"teamnumber" "1"

You don't have any _sun_angle, etc. set.  The map looks really bad without lighting.

Can u upload the model?

 I'll post the .zip with the model, when i'm done with the map.

 Does anybody have that(b2) mapfile?
