E1M3 (BOBKDV2)

E1M3 is the third map of BOBKDV2. It was designed by Bob Carter. It was later adapted into E3M1 of The Lost Episodes of Doom.

It contains a secret exit to E1M9.

Secrets

 * 1) In the north-west part of the central area, there is a platform fenced-in on three sides containing a light amplification visor. This can be reached by using the two nearby blocks. (sector 19)
 * 2) The exit switch is revealed by walking onto a throne in the east.  Walk off this throne to the west side - this lowers a platform near #1 containing a red key (there is also a light amplification visor on hard skill).  The red key can be used to open a door in the south leading to the secret exit. (sector 82)
 * 3) Entering the southern arch from the north side teleports to an area with three partial invisiblities on medium and hard skills.  Walking towards the south-east corner of this room raises a ceiling ahead as well as a ceiling behind, the latter leading to a lift leading up to a rocket launcher, a plasma gun (both weapons only present on medium and hard skill) and a soul sphere.  There is also in invulnerability here in multi-player. (sector 94)

Bugs
A box of bullets (thing 93) is placed inside one of the pillars surrounding the blue key area and is thus unobtainable.
