The Overdetailed Map Cheat is a patch for Prboom that, as you can see, makes the map cheat actually useful! It applies to both the 2.2.6 release and the code currently in Subversion, and would quite probably apply to Prboom+ with some tweaking (I haven't tried this, Prboom+ requires Windows which I don't have)
Installation
The patch is here: http://rjy.ath.cx/stuff/omc.patch.gz
You'll need to be able to build from source to use it; this would involve something like- tar -zxf prboom-2.2.6.tar.gz && cd prboom-2.2.6
- zcat ../omc.patch.gz | patch -p0
- ./configure && make
There is a README.omc included in the patch file, although it's probably inadequate; everybody knows the programmer shouldn't write the manual :)
Also you might like to delete the automap colour settings from your prboom.cfg, the defaults for new colours might not work well with your existing setup.
Screenshots
The first screenshot is from early on in Angus's -fast demo on Hell Revealed II's Playground, and it illustrates one of the advantages of this patch, being the ability to still see what's going on when the player is being forced to hide. Here are some more:

Anyway, enjoy!
2006-02-10 included links to full size images because vbulletin is stupid and strips them if you use an image as a link, as imageshack does with thumbnail images.
