thanks again

Try to remove all the bump.tga files. Maybe this can help. If your map keeps loading then there might be too many objects or you possibly reached the Graphics limit.

i am using your map, with all my .tga files and with my world1 folder complete (.ter, .pth, .mrq .... files) and the map run fine but:
* strange ugly floor
* object appear and disappear
* republic side can't go out from his commandpost
* doors are invisible

I had this bugs too, so I breaked up porting. Sereja tried to port this maps to BF2, but faced with problems too. Check his posts in his profile, maybe you will find some important info.

I removed all of the "vcol" objects that were placed in ZE to reduce clutter, vehicles are an afterthought at this point.

Sereja was scaling most of the msh files by 2-2.5 times with an option file, this results in the flickering side effect in SWBF2. The best course of action here is to import > scale > export, and add SWBF2 collision where convenient since the red objects look like collision geometry being rendered.

oto_orb_door_real.odf causes the loading screen to freeze, the files look fine though. I even recreated the door animation and exported to take its place. No idea whats going on there, this map doesn't like something about that object, but when you remove the ODF for it the map works fine. I'll probably try a stock animated door to see what happens next.
EDIT: Nope, doesn't work either, even after reducing the number from 47 down to 5.

So solvation of this problem is pretty easy (but takes a lot of free time and bored): you have to import each of my model in XSI, by the last version of ZETools, and resize them, according their -Size line, in each msh.option file. After you export them back, and delete -Size line from each msh.option, the bug should be gone, I guess.
