Rose a .pak file is just a container. It is basically a .zip file which 
is not packed. You can open it with winzip and other programs. This is 
just to be able to put together packages which you can then distribute. 
For example you can put some models in there or more than one map. The 
filetype of a quake map is .bsp

I don't know your exact problem. But if you just want to test something 
make a .bsp file. (Don't forget to vis the .map file.) and put the .bsp 
file into your ../quake2/baseq2/maps folder. If it does not exist create it.

After that you can go to the quake console and write "/map mymap.bsp" 
maybe you could cut the .bsp like "/map mymap"
