Error: Entity 0, Brush 37, Side 6: has a coplanar plane at (1273, 2432, 670), texture -0BABTECH_FLR10
Error: brush with coplanar faces
Description: The map has a problem which must be fixed

whats this mean?

You have a brush with an 'illegal' shape, meaning a shape that hammer will not recognize during a compile. To fix this, open your map in hammer and hit Ctrl+Shift+G, that opens a dialog window called "go to brush. Type in 0 for entity and 37 for brush, then hit enter. This will mark the offending brush. Then you can fix it by using vertex manipulation, or you can delete the brush and remake it.

The actual error means that you have two vertices on the same plane,
eg take a box, normally it should have 4 verticles for each side and 8 in total
if you split one of the sides and raised it you would have a basic house+roof shape. If you then moved the top verticies (top point of the roof) level with the side of the box again, the face is now coplanar!

Yep... And there's even diagrams in zthlproblems.html that came with zoners HL tools.
