Nope !
BUT, I did find something that did sort it out :)))
In the directory option, even though it was optional, I didnt specify the location of bspc.exe. When I did set this, and set it to the 'normal' option, it compiled the map AND took much longer to do it!!!!
In gtkRadiant it took 2mins....in q3map2 it took 10 mins :)))
It really made a difference too :)) The overall lighting and shadows were much, much better :))) But I still need to play around with the settings to get it even better.
So, thanks again for the help M8 :D
I need to sort out the lights themselves - clipping etc..as you've said before....(any chance of you giving me some ideas on what to do???)...once I've got it sorted, I'll send you the updated pk3 file.
