Walkthrough[edit]

Map of Error 405
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[edit]

This is a puzzle map that relies on the all-ghosts effect, and as such requires a source port that can emulate that glitch.

You begin in front of a sizable ammo cache. Take the shotgun and backpacks, leaving the medikits for later. Turn around and move to the left or right of the pillar, where eight shotgun guys are facing away, lined up and waiting politely for you to blast them with your own shotgun. Once you've done so, don't take their weapons; instead grab the two other ammo caches. Repeatedly kill the shotgun guys as they respawn, making sure they do not move too far from their starting positions. It will take between roughly six and eight minutes to accumulate 147 shotgunners and their bodies, at which point firing over the pile will cause an intercepts overflow to break map collision entirely. In this state, you can walk through the impassable bars at the south end of the room into a sector type 11 damaging floor; once your health drops below 10%, the level will end.

Trivia[edit]

  • 405 Method Not Allowed is an error in HTTP that can occur when a client requests a specific resource and an operation that is not valid for that resource. The all-ghosts effect is an example of this error not occurring, and the ensuing chaos as the game engine tries to muddle along with crucial data non-functional.
