Check the work dir where your qoole stuff is in and see if there is a .pts
file. if there is copy it (and your map) into the quake/id1/maps directory
and load up your map in quake. once in your map, bring down the console and
type 'pointfile'. At this time a long line will appear in your map (if you
cant see it initially, type 'noclip' at the console and go voiding to look
for it). Follow this line untill it intersects a wall somewhere and viola,
you've found a leak. Plug the leak, recompile, and do the same thing over
again untill you get a .prt file.
