i dont know exactly what the message means, but it stops you from compiling the map. Select anything that doesnt have a function in the map, like windows, doors etc, then right click in the xy view, and select make detail. i did this on one map i made with about 3m vis, and it went down to under 1m. you can only have 2097152 in a map. i dont know if that changed depending on the compile settings though.

The problem is that your map contains too much vis data. There's a maximum amount of vis data available which is about 2 Mb. It works when you leave all entities out, because without entities a vis compile is not possible at all. But I guess you'll want a map with entities, so what you'll have to do is to decrease the amount of vis data used by the compiler. That can be done by making structural brushes that do not actually block sight detailed.
