Ebon Posted January 14, 2006 Any place in Doom (or doom2) or any custom wad which uses sector type "14. After 5 minutes open like a door, wait and close" ? 0 Share this post Link to post
Manc Posted January 14, 2006 I believe this fine piece of work makes use of it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Grazza Posted January 16, 2006 All the compet-n Max times for Ultimate Doom are under 5 minutes, so if there are any, they don't open up secrets or release monsters, and they are not necessary to exit the map. Edit: actually, the logic there isn't quite solid, are there are maps where the compet-n rules allow <100% for a valid Max. However, for Ultimate Doom at least all these appear to be due to other issues. Possibly it's a feature id had thought they might use but didn't find a use for, or decided against it. Does anyone know in which version this sector type first appeared, or if it was used in any of the alphas/betas? 0 Share this post Link to post
Mordeth Posted January 16, 2006 No access to a leveleditor right now (or Doom for that matter) since I'm at work, but didn't something related to the secret exit in MAP15 of Doom2 make use of that? 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted January 16, 2006 It isn't used in any Ultimate Doom, Doom 2 or Final Doom map. 0 Share this post Link to post

Graf Zahl Posted January 18, 2006 I think they never used it due to its uselessness. Think about it: A door that opens for 4 seconds after 5 minutes and then never again? You can't do much with it. The secret in Eternal's MAP05 is probably the best you could ever do. 0 Share this post Link to post
