Compiling error: sampletriangulation: no points

I just got an error when compiling my map with fastvis. I tried final compile, same thing. Here's the compiling screen:

You should obtain the Arghrad 3.00 Test before lighting.
Unfortunately it can't be redistributed, so grab it here:

Then place arghrad.exe in c:\bsp\quake2\util
and delete the echo's from c:\bsp\quake2\pball\compilers\rad.bat

intercourse yeah! I got this AGAIN, when compiling ANOTHER map. I must try to fix it, but if you have anything, please tell me.

Forgot to mention, that i could fastvisrad compile, but when i tried to final compile, the error occured.

Edit: Problem solved, thanking Rick for help. Problem was rather weird: it was caused by brush based entities which i have done before with no problem. In these cases trigger_push and base entities.

Edit2: i remade the base entities with different texture and texture scale 1 and it compiled fine.

Edit3: Apparently the problem came from the texture scale. They were at 5000, though they were supposed to be at 500. I lowered the scale to 1 and the problem disappeared.

It's good to see that you worked out the rest of the problem yourself
and Thank you for posting how you fixed it, it may help a lot of people in the future.
