wait what ?!
open your map with zhlt ???
you mean using a bat file to compile it into a bsp right ?
if so..
you get that error if a path to a directory is screwed up
in you bat file check if all the paths are good ( actually points to a real folder )

Well, it says it cannot open the MAP file, so you did not do one of the following:
1. Spell your map's name correctly in the BAT file.
2. Copy your MAP file to the ZHLT folder.

" The system cannot find the file specified. "

zhlt cant find some file you used ( or you have some kind of very small brush , believe me i get this error because of a small brush )
