Secrets[edit]
- North-east of the red door is a door opened by a switch. Directly south of this door is an alcove, the back wall of which is a secret door leading to a room with 1-4 demons, a backpack, a stimpack, a rocket launcher, a box of rockets, and six energy cells. (sector 152)
- The room behind the door opened by the switch mentioned in #1 has secret door in the north wall (marked with a different texture) leading to a passage with a plasma rifle. (sector 135)
- Part-way along #2 is a secret door (marked with a different texture) leading to a soul sphere. (sector 127)
- Shooting the face west of the yellow key opens up a passage leading to seven armor bonuses plus access to an outdoor area with a chaingun and a megaarmor. (sector 156)
- This sector, which led to the secret exit in E2M5 of NJ Doom, is no longer on the map but still counted by the engine. It is thus unobtainable. (sector 197)
Bugs[edit]
Due to secret #5 (see above) not being obtainable, the maximum secrets percentage possible on this map is 80%.
