I can't offer direct help as I don't have that OS, but it looks like it's cutting the path at the first space character it encounters. Although.. I'm not sure why it's putting that path like that in the first place; maps, followed by a drive path??

I'd also suggest installing Doom 3 in a different location, like C:\Games\Doom3 or something else with less problematic characters like spaces and "(".

Wait a minute, is that the exact command you are using? If so then you should be using dmap mymapfile, as it will automatically expect the map to be in the base/maps folder.

every time i load it i dont get a error but it just puts me back to the main menu.. it bsp's in the consol and then flicks back to Main menu.. this is a tough one to crach

I assume you first dmap it (it will then go to main menu) and then you put map mymapname right?

Try compiling the map and generating AAS separately:

 

dmap noaas mapname

 

runaas mapname

 

AAS generation sometimes crashes when the areas are too complex.

Glad you got it working, nothing's worse than not being able to see your baby in game.....that and losing everything.
