Probably an invalid texture.

what do u mean invalid texture ..what do i have to look for to find this schmuck texture

You probably made some mistake when making your custom textures: invalid dimensions, wrong format, etc. Have a check.

there are a lot of spaces in the file paths. perhaps something to do with it. hammer doesnt like spaces

All tex in the HL engine needs to be multiple of 16... and the max size is 256x256 (except the 512x512)... what means that one of your custom tex can have wrong size like 97x43 or something...

To avoid problems, keep the size of your textures in a square pattern... like:
16x16, 32x32, 64x64, 128x128, 256x256 and 512x512...

To do retangular tex, try to avoid the random multiples like 208... The engine of the HL wasn't created for this type of use, but, for small textures that can be repeated...

It's not a law or rule that needs to be followed, but it makes your work more easy...

[edit] And tell us, what is the exact error mensage???

k well sorry took so long for me to reply..have school. Anyways i made the texture 256X256...and the map compiles fine still but it closes CS and says file read error...idk im going to go through everything again b4 i might just give up
