Map pdi was badly broken in RC4. So badly, I've not inculded
it in RC5, even though it was corrected somewhat...

It looks to me like the game was looking for the incorrect
map name (the name should have been pdi08d.bsp, in your
screen-shot it is pdi08.bsp).

Potentially the game was trying to load a night version of
the map but couldn't find one. Trunk includes a work-around
to correctly load missions where no night maps are available.

Possibly the error could be due to a bug in the map itself
(since RC4 though the map has been updated, which might have
fixed it if this was the case).

In RC5 this map was not included. It may be included for
RC6, although I have not yet fully decided (testing reveals
it seems to work ok now).

I'm closing this bug as out-of-date due to the large number
of changes that have happened since RC4 which might have
fixed this, and without further information we can't really
know the true cause.
