MAX_SWITCHED_LIGHTS

means you have lights that can be switched on and off, and more than 3 (or 4?) shine on the same surface. This makes it too complex to be stored in a BSP.

If you DON'T have that many switchable lights, then there is something else wrong with your map.

I think certain TEXTURES act as switchable lights so that may be the problem too.
