1) how to make invisable wall?
Use player clip texture (You can find it in common textures foldzer)
2)how to make water with water sounds?
Easiest way to make water is making shader that you can go tought. code of this type wall and how to add sound you can find on GZmap Forums.
3) how to make like a flag that moves like the one in mansion?
Flags are elu + ani objects with animations you can only replace those objects from manion to your map but you cant change its place. (Flag object adding is same as sky adding)
4) how to make Circles?!?!?
Brush >> Prism...
5) how I can wall like door only screen that if i walk on it i can go throught it like its only pic that i can go other side...
Its shader wall. (It was released on GZmap Forums.
6)when i try to Build with Light Map it opens the build cmd under the LightMap Generator says LightMap generation failed!
and I go test the map on the game with lightmap it auto crash the game... how i can fix this? T.T
I cant realy say why but I guess that your map is overloaded witth brushes. How much brushes it has. I had this error once myself when I added too much circles.

Most of your questions were answered there: GZmap Forums

1) Using No-draw, or caulk
2)Water is hard to recreate, using a blue shader will help. Also this will help, http://gzmap.sourceforge.net/forums/....php?f=4&t=847
http://gzmap.sourceforge.net/forums/....php?f=4&t=935
3) Check .xml in this .mrs http://gzmap.sourceforge.net/forums/....php?f=5&t=908
4) I recommend not doing this this will cause light map problems.
But if you want, create a mesh, go to brush , Prism and add like around 60 sides.
5) Using shaders/
6)Download the newest fsrad, http://www.megaupload.com/se/?d=SK01EZZQ

7) Everyone needs a start.

That "fix" is called fsrad. It's used to generate lightmaps. Gtk don't make lightmap by it selfs, so it uses fsrad.

Just put your fsrad into gtk instaliation foldzer and leave it there. now when you will do build >> fast light, lightmapping shouldnt crash.

i already figured that out but ty any way and i got one more question =[ and its very newbie thought i think i know the answer because not tested yet

how i make shader?
i opened new gunz.shader and putted in it the door TGA texture and water texture that would make it like walk throughtable?
