if you added any polygons which have special symbols, for example the textures for lights uses the # symbol.
then you need to make sure them polygons which have the special symbols are not touching the geometry of the map or model. have them as close as you can but never touching it.

also make sure you converted your map to editable mesh before you export it through tool,
because running tool on a editable poly model can throw up errors like this too.
if none of that helps, convert the model to editable poly, select the border tool and scroll over the whole model, if there are bad edges or even gaps this will show them surrounded by red lines.
goodluck.
edit: also you can try this, import the wrl file tick the top 2 boxes, click on the select by name tool at the top of 3ds max, scroll down to the the names beginning with VT (VTF i think it was)
select that click okay, hit Z to zoom in on the error, it will show you the area that needs fixing.

Create the new faces, otherwise you will get open edge errors.
