when you compile your rmf file you get from hammer

Like I said in the other truck, there isn't a program that will reliably do this for you.

During the compile process (.map to .bsp) some information is simply discarded so it's not possible to exactly recreate a .map/.rmf-file from a .bsp-file.

Some decompilers still manages to do a pretty good job. With "pretty good" usually meaning that you need to manually re-build the whole map by using the decompiled output as a template.

In other words, it's usually not worth the hassle.

You can use BSP2MAP but it can't convert all textures !!!
