okaay i got rid of the first part of read me.
but as i tried again the same thing happened
i double click and it opens as a read me file in notepad but one says its a MAP file other says MAX file??
also, for i think step six, when i exported them, they were still just the files
like the ones called stuff like hlbsp and other things are called applications and not exe. or whatever. it said i have to go to tools>options and turn of something but icant find it.
is the file called mapname.bat supposed to be a text file

Mapname should be a bat file. Make sure you have extentions showing in explorer so you can rename it properly. You are also supposed to have downloaded the ZHLT executables from somewhere, I don't know that I understand what you mean really...

These problems are related. If you open up Folder Options and UNcheck 'hide extentions for known file types' then you should be able to change the name properly. After that, double clicking on the bat file should make the map.

superjers tutorial should explain pretty well

http://www.superjer.com/learn.php

you need to see file extensions
cause if there hidden then its not really a .bat file ... you see it as mapname.bat but it actually is mapname.bat.txt

everyone needs to read the tutorial step by step an double check that he did everything that the tutorial says , and he shouldn't have any problem . But since people never read the tutorial with attention , they get an error/problem and then panic and think that there is something wrong with the tutorial ( and with every1 else who used it ) and nobody ever thinks of retracing their steps to see where they did something wrong
