MAP01: The Gateway is the first map of Requiem. It was designed by Orin Flaharty, and uses the music track "The Rhythm of Carnage" by David "Tolwyn" Shaw.
Description[]
According to both the text file and the Requiem info pack:
- Welcome to Requiem. First map out of thirty, and as expected, a nice steady ride.
- Your objective is to travel through the small technology base, where the demons have used metal-like architecture and slayed [sic] human corpses together.
- Find the exit just outside the base, and prepare for mission 2.
Walkthrough[]
Map of MAP01
- Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.
Secrets[]
- At the northwest hallway, one of the southern walls to the north is aligned differently from the rest. Open it to find a teleporter leading to security armor at the south of the level. (sector 5) Walk off either side of the platform to return.
- In the final hallway before the exit, a candle sits in front of the northern wall. Press on the wall behind it to find a box of shells. (sector 122)
Bugs[]
In cooperative multiplayer mode, Player 2 starts the level (and respawns) standing close to and facing a wall.
In the outdoors area outside of the northeast room, four linedefs (556, 651, 781, and 765) on either side of the northeast and southeast windows are double-sided without a back side, producing the Hall of Mirrors effect. However, these cannot be seen unless you activate the noclip cheat and walk outside through the windows.
