New Speedmap

Here's a Speedmap I made for the holiday weekend. Not Easter themed, but I thought a good way to celebrate a Christian Holiday would be to kill some demons. Enjoy!

Edit: Requires Boom behaviour.

This game can feel really weird when playing after not playing for a long time. Its like my brain has no memory of the 'floor ice' effect ever having existed where you keep some momentum after stopping, causing me to fumble all around and completely miss shots. I thought I had autorun on on accident or something.
The level is short and easy, once you realize you can kill the vile immediately after getting the rl. Died on the fda like usual.

Yeah that happens to me too sometimes. Glad you like this map, took me about 25 minutes to make. A UV-speed would be cool to watch. Maybe a max too.

Here's a 359 first exit uv max:

Speed might be tricky because a vile is blocking a switch, unless you do it not so speedy.
I think your maps are fun. Simple, no annoying secrets, little floor height (variation tends to look good but play bad due to things like infinitely tall cacodemons and stupid enemies not being able to walk up steps unless the steps are huge).

Nice Demo.

Yeah for speedmaps I tend to leave out secrets, but in my other, longer maps I do like to put them in.

.

I made it in about half an hour. I usually spend several days building a map though.

What must I do to open this door (by the rocket launcher)? I think it is just the Vile switch, but it won't open. Help!

Demo showing the problem.

I'm pretty sure I labeled that one the blue door. Go press the switch behind the vile and the room with the blue key will open.

Sorry, I mean the lowering wall that joins the rocket launcher area to the start area. Arrgh, there's 2 of them, I mean the big square one.

The switch behind the vile lowers that too.

Have you played my demo? In that demo, I press the switch and the wall does not lower.

Wait, I'll make a clearer demo, that one wasn't so clear.

You mean the wall next to the teleporter right?

Are you using Boom?

This requires Boom behaviour. The floor won't lower with vanilla behaviour when there's stuff on it. It works OK with -nomonsters.

You should make things like this clear, as people will tend to assume a map works with vanilla behaviour unless they are told otherwise. I've edited your first post accordingly.

I'll just try with a different complevel, back in a sec.

Yeah, sorry. I guess I just assume most people use boom. I'll note that stuff in the future.

I usually use boom behavior stuff in my maps.

EDIT: In fact it does open when I play it. And it opened in ggg's demo too.

Ok, I'll work this out, thanks for looking at this.
