Your thread titles could be more specific you know...

You try searching the forums by the error number it listed? Its #387. You have too many planes in your bsp, so you need to get rid of some unless its caused by something else.

Planes are a part of your 3d model. If you don't know what planes are, then you need to learn some more terminology for 3d modeling programs.

The error says you have too many, so I'm guessing the way to fix it is to limit your use of them. You might want to wait for someone else's advice though.

I understand what planes are, but can you give me some tips to reducing them?

Z buffered triangles are hard to explain, the only knowledge I have on them is there was an option in Need For Speed 3 that allowed you to turn them on or off (funny how a game from 1998 allowed it while a game from 2003 doesn't).
Turning them on allowed certain triangles to be seen through parts of the object at certain angles.

And for the depth thing, you might want to try shrinking the map, it might be too large/tall/deep in some places.

Anyway - just select your entire map and move it up so no part of it is below 0 on the Z axis... note that nothing has to be AT 0 - the lowest point can be 250 and it'll still work... Anyway - that should solve all the problems.

or a sphere.

this error happens alot to me for no reason, but I can sometimes get around it by exporting as 3ds, re-import, and then directly export from there, and 90% of the time it seems to fix it.

z buffered triangles is not a fatal error. Halo perfectly supports z buffered triangles in maps. It has to do with the way the triangles are rendered, I'm pretty sure. There was something I read a while ago about how the z-buffer algorithm or something like that improved rendering performance...
