That's a new one on me. Try opening your ".map" file with wordpad--the terrain is easy to spot in the text. I have saved a lot of maps that way, ha ha.

Here is what mine looks like, the first three patches anyway. Where it says 0.50000... is the scale of the texture (sand), I think.

// brush 1091
{
terrainDef
{
81 153 0
-2368.000000 -4032.000000 -180.000000
{
0 0 ( mohtest/omaha_set1 0 0 0.00 256 0.500000 0.500000 0 16777216 0 )
0 0 ( mohtest/omaha_set1 0 0 0.00 256 0.500000 0.500000 0 16777216 0 )
0 0 ( mohtest/omaha_set1 0 0 0.00 256 0.500000 0.500000 0 16777216 0 )

think i acidently set the LOD terrain to Detail ,recompiling now and the BSP before the light worked.

Will try again after light is complete.

THe other thing to check is that EACH LOD Patch isn't higher than 510!! You'll know if it is too high as the points turn from purple to yellow......

Wont compile if its like that ,but nearly compiled will know soon enough.

Btw i posted a thread for any compile errors if you guys can add to it be great so ppl wont have to look at the Q3 ones that have little or no meaning on mohrad.
