Secrets

 * 1) When you cross the first blood river, quickly go west to the green armor, then you will teleport. Get the plasma gun before it rises. Note that the teleporter only works once, so you only get one shot between entering the teleporter and lowering the plasma gun. (sector 6355)
 * 2) Climb the steps southeast of the blood river and head southeast to a backpack. Open the wall behind it to get a rocket launcher. (sector 6464)
 * 3) At the red area at the east end, go to the southwest side, where there is a computer and a pad with a box of ammo. Stepping on the pad triggers something. Leave and head east to the open sector to get a box of shotgun shells. (sector 1580)
 * 4) In the room south of the red area with two blood pools, enter the right one and lower the south wall to find a medikit, a megaarmor, a super shotgun, a soul sphere, armor bonuses, a backpack, and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 1712)
 * 5) As you make progress through the base section, you will see a chaingun and a box of ammo behind bars. To get it, on the wall to the left, look for a red button to the south, which removes the bars. (sector 973)
 * 6) In the first big blood pool area, head north to a marble room with a switch. Shoot the northwest satyr face to reveal one to the east, then use that to open the northeast corner which has a rocket, boxes of ammo, and a green armor. (sector 3674)
 * 7) In the middle, southwest of the big blood pool, head to an area with a closing column and a backpack, armor bonuses, and a stimpack. When you do this, wait a bit, then head back and northeast, past the silver floor, then north into an open area before it closes. You will find armor bonuses, an energy cell, shotgun shells, a medikit, and rockets. (sector 3861)
 * 8) West of the first BFG9000, open the marble wall to the left. Head north, looking out for the dropping floor, and you can find a megasphere and rockets (the rockets only appear on Ultra-Violence or higher). (sector 6741)
 * 9) At the southwest end, in an area with a large skull switch to the north, flip that switch, then use the eye switch to the west. Run into the area to the east and then north, then go west and south to a soul sphere, a computer area map, a medikit, boxes of shotgun shells, a backpack, a megaarmor, a medikit, health bonuses, armor bonuses, and if you head back, you will find more ammo. (sector 5281)
 * 10) In the same area, when you get to the pillar with the twitching human and silver panels (it is close to the south end), head west and through the door to a switch. Use it to open a large secret area. (sector 630)
 * 11) Head all the way northwest in Secret #10 to a switch. Use it and quickly run to the southeast lift where you can access several alcoves. Stay on the lift as it rises and use the switch up top, then quickly run off and head west to another lowered lift with energy cell packs and a medikit. Use the back wall and go through before the lift rises to find a secret place with another medikit, armor bonuses, health bonuses, a shotgun, and a switch to go further south. (sector 57)
 * 12) At the south end, climb the marble steps with vines and climb to the south side. Lower the red brick wall to the west to get a backpack, ammo, and a medikit. (sector 5780)
 * 13) In the field near the north end, go into the blood to the west and head northwest to a door. Using it will not lower the door, but head south all the way and to the west is a switch. Use the switch, then run all the way back to the door quickly to get a medikit and boxes of shotgun shells (both only on Ultra-Violence or higher). Note that if you try to leave, you will open up another area to the west. (sector 9527)
 * 14) When you leave the area past Secret #13, lower the door again and go to it, but stand on the door as it rises and head to the health bonuses to the west. This will open a trap area to the left with a soul sphere. (sector 9593)
 * 15) In the field near the north end, after unlocking both the east side with the cracks as well as the steps going south, take the steps up and west until you can jump to a block to the north. Jump there to get a megasphere, a backpack, and full cell ammo (six energy cell packs). (sector 10323)
 * 16) After getting Secret #15, head back east and this time go northeast. Fall into the hole and you will find energy cells and medikits. (sector 10447)
 * 17) Leave Secret #16 and head back up out of the hole. You are supposed to teleport to the next secret by taking the teleporter here, but this will instead take you to a different column on the south side, instead of the one that is near the teleporter with a soul sphere. (sector 9129)
 * 18) In the northernmost area, at the southwest area with blood, enter the southwest part to hear something lower, then run to the northwest side and enter the teleporter to get rockets and a soul sphere. (sector 7596)
 * 19) At the south hall of the northernmost area, keep going as pillars rise and you will soon see a structure to the north with a skull lift. The pillar southeast of that has a switch to lower the lift. Ride it up and lower the wall to the right of the next switch to get a soul sphere and a backpack. (sector 8005)
 * 20) At the southeast end of the northernmost section, head north and the floor will soon change. Make your way through the Hellgrowth until you can go to the east side of a wall that sort of resembles a backwards "J". Use the bloodfall at the south end here to lower the Hellgrowth, as well as the one to the south of it, which has health bonuses and a medikit. (sector 8196)

Bugs
The teleporter that is supposed to access Secret #17 will instead teleport you to a different platform. This is because both Secret #17 and the platform have the same tag and a teleport landing for both, and the game registers the other platform as the destination. Due to this, only 95% secrets is possible on this map.
