The map isn't too complex though. I tried it with Zdoom, PRBoom, JDoom, Legacy and Doom2.exe and was able to complete the level each time. Full Description: Well, this weekend I found myself in the very rare situation of having a bit of spare time. So I decided to turn back the clock and make a simple, no port specific map. I just started "doodling" stuff with DeePsea, trying to catch some of what I like about E1M7, and about 4-5 hours later I had a map in front of me. Up until then I hadn't even tried running it, but after play testing, I decided it was worth spending a bit of time texturing it properly, and working a bit on item placement. Voila, one (longish) afternoon's work later a map. For those Episode1 purists, there are bound to be some things you won't like but this wasn't a serious attempt at an exclusively Ep1 map. It was just something I did to amuse myself. In saying that, I stuck fairly closely to the Doom1 textures that are available in Doom2 (which is a limited set compared to Doom1 proper) and I didn't use any non Ep1 monsters (which maybe makes it a bit easy). In addition, I didn't use any "fancy" architecture or port specific line types. Stopping myself from making little complex, eye candy areas, was the hardest part actually. I also tried to avoid linetypes that weren't available before Doom2 came out, but a few did sneak in ;-). * Copyright / Permissions * Authors MAY use the contents of this file as a base for modification or reuse.
