Has "trigger_cdtrack"

I'm sure you could look at the QC and use that in your own progs.dat if you did not want to use the whole Mod.

Noob Question About Removing Limits 
Hi. I am new to mapping, and working on my first quake map, for AD mod. I am using the latest Quakespasm and Trenchbroom 2.
I am about about halfway done with the map, and seem to have hit the limits. When I compile, no lights and everything is dark.
From scouring the net, I understand I need to use BSP2 and sv_protocol 999 ?
How do I do this ? Where do I change these things ?

You 100% do not. 
 
No lights and pitch black map does not sound like something related to hitting any BSP limits, you probably broke something else.
To test bsp2, just put -bsp2 in your qbsp.exe params. 
Compile With Light 
Try running LIGHT.exe when you compile. Tends to brighten things up sometimes.

Come over to Quake Mapping Discord for real time help. https://discordapp.com/invite/j5xh8QT

Sounds like you are running light but may not have enough (any?) in your map. If you didn't run LIGHT the map would be full brightness.

Silly Question 
and totally out of order,
but how do I take a screenshot in Doom1? 
Screenshotting Doom Properly 
the correct way would be to play it on a 1993 CRT monitor, and take a photo of the monitor display using a traditional film camera, and then get your photos developed (i dunno where you do this now, i used to take mine to Boots in the 90s) and then post your photo via physical mail to a magazine publishing house that still prints a semi-amateur PC gaming magazine, like the sort you'd see in the 90s, you know the ones with headlines like "Commander Keen Kerbstomps The Konsole Kweens". Finally, get the magazine publishers to send you a copy of the edition containing the print of your photo. Anything less just wouldn't feel proper and retro. 
@madfox 
depends on the engine you're using
i'd recommend gzdoom [prtscr button] 
Ah! 
@-Kinn: As I'm a publisher myself I can take my screenshot with a digital camera, send the picture to my computer, and than ask myself what to do with the blurry picture I got myself. Then I won't offend any magazine publisher, or in this case ID1, who is been that good to deliver the Doom'93 programm for free, on which I run it on a 386 PC.

@-spy: Thanks for the info. I'm aware of the SLADE programm, which give me all possible access to the programm itself.

There are a lot of screenshots published, so it's a bit stupid to ask the question anyway. Me in my ninties adaption was thinking there would really be a F12 button to do so.

Why I want a screenshot? Well, after converting all monsters to Quake1 I thought it a good qc aprehension to do so with the weapons as well.
Blessed the poor of armors, for they will inherate the heavens of weapons.
