Error showing when trying to play the map

Hi.
I've been working on a map in a long time and now when I want to test it it gives this error:
Requested feature was omitted at compile time
What causes this error. I've searched for it on net and they say it's a shader problem. I'm sure that all of my shaders works fine.

make sure all your jpgs are "simple" -- no special encodings, no extra metadata, make sure you DISABLE "progressive" jpeg modes when saving your jpgs

How can I see if they are encoded?

Most of them I download from net or I use Pixlr Editor, but I don't have any problem with my levelshots (Pixlr Editor).

It's fairly common for net images to use progressive, so you will often at the very least have to re-encode them. I'd also check their size to try to normalize it to something convenient for q3 offset/scaling. Try move ALL of your textures out of your texture folder and see if it still crashes. If one of your textures is the problem, then you will get a lot of missing textures, but it won't crash. If it still crashes, it could be something else.

There was a problem with one of the textures.
Resizing soloved the problem. I guess you reencode images when you save them, right?
