Map of Aeternus

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.

Secrets

1. At the start, jump south from the starting point to the platform to the south, then climb to the inside of the platform to find a soul sphere.(sector 400)
2. As you go through the hallways leading to the red key, you will find that some of the floors and walls are broken. Just before the corridor to the red key chamber, you can head to the broken section of hall and go southeast to find a backpack and an energy cell pack. (sector 1478)
3. When you teleport to the blue key area, head behind the portal you came from to get a megasphere. (sector 1762)
4. When you get to the large platform in the middle of the map, head to the north end and jump the platforms going west, making sure to jump on the rising and lowering platform at its lowest point and ride it up. Head southwest from here, and then jump down to the platforms that spell out "GEM". Jump one more platform to the southwest, then onto a rising and lowering platform to the north. Use it to jump to this platform for the secret, which has a switch. (sector 2140)
