Fairly simple. Import your debug.wrl and it SHOULD mark the open edges. However, it screws up for me. So I would just recommend selecting everything and welding to a factor that won't screw over your map.

okay to fix to get that texture to only be on your ground,go to your top viewport and left click anywhere on the ground.this should highlight 1 of the ground polygons...hold down the CTRL button while left clicking on all the other parts of your ground and thats's it.apply your texture in the material editor.then to texture only the cliffs area make sure your sky is hidden.go to your front viewport and highlight the cliffs area then apply your texture with the material editor.

just to let you know that when you draw your height map in paint or photoshop,you can make it any shape you want but to practice you should be okay seeing its your first try.also notice how your cliffs have pointed edges...you will see that in yap yaps tutorial he shows how to move vertices to make hills etc...you can also move the vertices that make up your cliff.try to get used to smoothing the cliff edges out to make it look a bit better.

Sometimes that happens when your map is too big, do you have like a giant water plane or something? How big is your map compared to, say, bloodgulch?

google is your friend. find some new textures convert to .tiff then put those in your map. it will look so much better then those textures you has

I take it you have .tif files in the data\levels\bliss\bitmaps folder? If so, then you're first command should work. When it says 'bitmaps source-directory', it means you say

tool bitmaps levels\mapname\bitmaps

But of course, you had that the first time, so I'm not sure what your problem is.

I believe the command you want is:

tool bitmaps levels\bliss\bitmaps bitmaps

 Couldn't read map file ' ./toolbeta.map
usage: tool verb 
 bitmaps source-directory

are u serious with that map dude?
case if u are well, jsut start over. the reason u got so many damn errors is things are overlapping adn touching , and seems u over inset-ed or rotated items so they are all screwed up. please watch a tutorial, cause this is relaly bad. i may sound mean but just start over.
