This is a console version of a PC level.

This level occupies the map slot MAP01. For other maps which occupy this slot, see Category:MAP01.

MAP01: Hangar is the first level of most console versions of Doom, based on the original E1M1: Hangar with modifications made to accommodate consoles' framerate and storage capacity limitations. The author of the conversion is American McGee, and the original author of the map is John Romero. The map first appeared in Jaguar version, and is additionally used in the 3DO, Sega 32X, Game Boy Advance, Sony PlayStation, and Sega Saturn versions. The Sony PlayStation version introduces additional modifications to add colored lighting, translucent textures, and reverberation effects.

Walkthrough

Map of Hangar

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Essentials

Go straight forward (north) into a hallway and head round the corner to a door, then open it to enter the central computer room. Continue east past the zombies to a doorway and go down the steps to a zig-zag bridge over nukage, then cross the bridge and open the door on the other side. Go through the exit door you see in front of you and flip the switch to your right to end the level.

Secrets

1. Just before the door at the south end of the zig-zag room is a wall that is gray rather than tan. Open it to find a passage to the outdoor area, which has a nukage pool containing a megaarmor. (sector 29)
2. After entering the penultimate room, return to the zig-zag area. The platform in the south-east corner has lowered to reveal a room with a shotgun. (sector 31)
3. Go to the steps leading to the zig-zag room and step in the shadow, then quickly run back to secret #2 where a lift has lowered. Ride the lift up to a tunnel with armor bonuses and a box of shotgun shells. (sector 43)

Bugs

In the PlayStation release, the sound data for lost souls fired by the pain elemental is never loaded into memory, causing their attacks to be silent. The death and pain sounds are still preserved, with the former being identical to any projectile hit and the latter being the pain state sound of the pain elemental.

Comparison of versions

The starting room only contains two barrels. A third barrel, along with the dead marine, gibs and pairs of health and armor bonuses have been removed.

Two pillars in the armor room were removed entirely along with the technical columns on them. Armor bonuses were removed, but health bonuses have been retained. Also, the entrance room was widened a bit.

The window textures in the room leading to the exit room were replaced with blocking sectors. The secret hallway that loops back into the poison room is now visible from the poison room, as in the DOS version there was a texture blocking visibility.

The PlayStation port adds some new enemies to the map on the Ultra-Violence skill level:

• A zombieman standing in the corridor between the first door and the starting room. Can be seen right at the start.
• A chaingunner in the computer room replacing one of the shotgunners. This means the player can obtain both the shotgun and chaingun during the first level.
• A pain elemental in secret #3.
