ehhh ehhh ehh JUST NO

http://files.filefront.com/PakScape/;1323402;/fileinfo.html

This is the software for making pk3's
It requires the .bsp file only.
If you include the .map then people can work on your map.
Get a tutorial on how to use it.

It is a zip file.
Make sure you have all the paths right.

Hit command-I (the letter 'i') on it, go to "Name & Extension", edit extension/type there.  Ex.  Change *.zip to *.pk3, hit "return", click the button to use .pk3, and you are done.

as long as the .bsp is in a subdir called maps when you zip it.
Or in other words, read this.

Is it really that hard to rename a zip file?

you could just view some pk3s (like arachnid2, atcs) to see the layout... anyway it has been explained for hundreds of times
