I realize everyone's just going to be like USE THE SEARCH.. but I did. How exactly (step by stem) does one manually make a pk3 on Windows 7 when they have a .bsp file of their map? The reason I ask this is I can't seem to get any of the automatic pk3 things working, I always get runtime errors and crap.
I know this section is dead but...
I've always used 'Pakscape' (Created by Peter Engstrom, works exactly like WinZIP/WinRAR). Some people just rename a ZIP file, though I don't know if that actually creates a genuine PK3 file.
Attached is an image of how you should structure the files and folders.
Here's a DDL to Pakscape; http://www.fileplanet.com/50620/50000/fileinfo/PakScape (Its the right file I just checked)
I know that though, the question I have is what exactly goes into it? I know I have a map, and it has textures, but how do I find these textures so I can put them into the .pk3?
You keep track of whice ones you use, you extract them from other .pk3 files if needed and you put them with your map.
Look from NetRadiant's console, what were used in mapping process.

Not so sophisticated as Pakscape, but it works as it should be.:P
Alright, I got a map running in Trem (it's just a box for testing purposes). How does one get a light emitting shader? I can't find any white bordered textures under the ATCs or ATCSHD texture windows, and I know that ATCS has them. Do you have to make some sort of script or something?
Go to textures -> View -> Show Shaders. Check this, and shaders should be visible.
Also, if you need more tutorials, view this. (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=14411.0)
Thanks for all the help!

A PK3 file IS a ZIP file renamed to .pk3.
