Tool.exe couldn't read map file '.\toolbeta.map' error

I was following the How to make custom vehicles tutorial when this error showed up. It came up when I tried to use tool to convert my vehicle to a gbx model (tool.exe model vehicles\nameofvehicle). I tried routing the command line to the same directory as tool and putting my model in the same directory and it still didn't work. I am using GMAX to make the models and using chimp to export them. Could it be the program I am using, or am I missing a file? I looked at the forum and I found no answers, but I noticed other people have the same error(couldn't read map file '.\toolbeta.map'). Please help me!

have the jms file in the model folder(the collision goes in physic) and enter:
tool.exe model vehicles\vehinamhere
the vehicle name can not have a space for some odd reason.
but there is 1 unknown(to me) issue that it will ask for the next cammand afetr toolbeta.map. knave and i both decided taht it was a problem with the model. check the collision model or if theres a wrl file look in that.
