Here's a small tutorial:
1. create a generall folder claeed [YOURMAPNAME]
2. create folders inside of that
[YOURMAPNAME]/maps
[YOURMAPNAME]/sound
[YOURMAPNAME]/textures
and so on.
3. Put all files related to your map into maps
This contains usually:
[YOURMAPNAME].bsp; [YOURMAPNAME].map; [YOURMAPNAME].mapconfig; [YOURMAPNAME].jpg
4. Fill every other folder with things, which shoud be there.
If you want to know, what folders you can make, just look into another map.pk3
5. Create a pk3
(I use 7-zip and i recommend ti to everybody, its better than anything and Freeware)
Select all folders in [YOURMAPNAME]-Folder
Right CLick->7-zip->Add to Archiv
Right at the top, replace [YOURMAPNAME].zip with [YOURMAPNAME].pk3
For more compression, use Compressionmode: Ultra (smaller files)
Compress and put your map into Nexuiz/data to enjoy.

why not? Why keeping something bad, when you can have a thing million times better?
