Shouldn't this be posted in the tutorials own thread?(it's not locked) Or at the very least in the Community modding section, it has nothing to do with mapping.

your problem is that you need to extract the files from vbf2 and pr's objects_server/client.zip files...

But you should not be adding main components such as balconies, floors etc as child objects that require lightmaps as we found out after that tut that child objects could not be lightmapped via the BF2 editor or 3DsMax and as such really screwed things up. Ladders dont need lightmaps so they are fine.
