You don't need to include the ".prt" and ".vis" files because they are already compiled into the ".bsp" file.

Don't name your .pk3 file "Pak3" because that name is already in use. It can have any name you want, like:

d_th.pk3

A .pk3 is like a compressed version of the main folder. It is easy enought to just put the folders in a zip file and rename it but, if you still can't get it, download "Pakscape" and it will do it all for you.

Well it will only open up a pak for you to put stuff in. You actually have to put the folders in for the bsp and scr files. By the way just makin sure he knows what you meant tltrude.
