Map of Vestibule of Plague

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. Inside the room just before the blue key room, you can find a switch tucked somewhere in the southwest corner. After pressing this switch, run north to find a computer area map in an alcove. (sector 388)
2. After getting the red key, press the eastern wall behind the teleporter. Follow the passage to find a megasphere guarded by an arch-vile (baron of Hell on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 382)
