LEVEL 01: ENTRYWAY
------------------
01SEC.LMP: 00:55, Skill 4, no monsters

LEVEL 02: UNDERHALLS (2 demos)
--------------------
02RED.LMP: 00:24, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to access the red key by running through a nearby window.  (In
computer-based Doom games "Run" is typically enabled by holding the Shift key.)

02COMBAT.LMP: 01:30, Skill 4
Notes: Ultra-Violence combat demo with maximum Kills, Items and Secrets.
Notes on the making of this demo: As with all combat demos here, this one was
made keyboard-only, and I exit the level in better shape than when I entered.
Not my favorite demo of this level, but it is my fastest... Despite some clumsy
moments I manage to nail the Par Time.

LEVEL 03: THE GANTLET (2 demos)
---------------------
03SEC.LMP: 00:37, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Demonstrates 2 methods for getting into that "well", where a handful of
useful Items are located.
The first method involves running from a bridge opposite the well.
The second method shows how to get into the well from a nearby platform, using
a simultaneous combination of Run-forward plus Strafe-sideways.  This "strafe
running" maneuver moves the player character at an odd angle but yields a speed
slightly above that of plain running.

LEVEL 05: THE WASTE TUNNELS (2 demos)

05SEC.LMP: 00:47, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows two methods for acquiring a weapon located in a narrow chamber on
the north edge of the western half of the map.

05HOLES.LMP: 00:39, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Two examples of gaining entrance to the twin rooms, or "holes", that are
off to either side of the exit door.  (Actually, each hole/room is just one end
of a single bracket-shaped tunnel.)
You can Run and land in either room, provided you start from the right place,
and you don't bump into any monsters along the way.  (Note that this can
include Demons/Spectres down in the water: Even if they are below you, you can
bump into them if your paths cross.)
While normal running can propel you above the water, some players may prefer
"strafe running" (using the simultaneous combination of Run-forward and
Strafe-sideways), which moves the player at an odd angle but yields a speed
slightly above that of plain running.
Both running styles are demonstrated here: Normal, followed by strafe style.

LEVEL 06: THE CRUSHER (3 demos)
---------------------
06BLUE.LMP: 00:13, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to access the blue key when playing at Skill levels 4 or 5.
(At these Skills, the key is located on a platform at the far west end of the
"crusher room".)
Notes on the making of this demo: To save some time, I run out through the gap
in the bars without waiting for the elevator to cycle; But that jump is much
easier if you ride the elevator up, then run straight through the gap from the
far side of the elevator platform.

LEVEL 07: DEAD SIMPLE (2 demos)
---------------------
07EXIT.LMP: 00:40, Skill 1
Shows an example of exiting successfully: When all of the monsters are dead, a
stair step rises up around the base of the pink cube at the center of the map.
Simply walking up to that cube and Activating it like a switch will take you to
the next level.
At least, that's how it's supposed to happen; See below for an example of when
it doesn't happen that way.

07BUG.LMP: 00:47, Skill 1
Notes: Demonstrates a bug in which the stair step around the central platform
malfunctions, blocking normal access to the Exit cube.  Also shows how to get
to the cube by running to it from the lowered northeast or northwest platform.
This bug ordinarily occurs when the last two Arachnotrons are killed in very
close succession.  Essentially the game thinks that each one of them was the
last one to die, so the stair step rises for one of them, and then again for
the other.  Note that this only happens when their deaths overlap, but are not
simultaneous.
This bug can be repeated multiple times in the same game if monster-respawning
is in effect (either through the built-in respawn of Nightmare Skill, or
through the use of a "-respawn" command-line parameter).  In this instance, the
stair step may again rise one interval every time any respawned Arachnotron is
"the last one to die".

------------------------
10HOLE.LMP: 00:26, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to get into the square hole that's high up in one wall of the
chamber in the southwest corner of the map.  That hole is one part of a small
T-shaped tunnel.

LEVEL 11: CIRCLE OF DEATH ('O' OF DESTRUCTION!) (3 demos)
-----------------------------------------------
11INVULN.LMP: 00:38, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to access the Invulnerability Sphere in the slime pool at the
northwest corner of the map.
Notes on the making of this demo: I take a detour to the blue-key room in order
to cross a floor trigger in the doorway there, which opens a tunnel outside.
The tunnel leads to a teleporter, which sends you to a platform from where you
can jump to the red key.

Notes: Shows how to drop the barricade that blocks access to the exit chamber.
Notes on the making of this demo: Using the shortcuts shown in this demo, you
don't actually need the blue key in order to exit; but you do need to cross the
threshold of the blue-key room in order to open the tunnel I use to get to the
red key.

---------------------
12EXIT.LMP: 00:53, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to access the exit.
Here's how: Look for the 5 switches in the large square room in the northwest
corner of the map (the room surrounded by moving platforms).  Activate all of
them to open a passage that leads from the northeast corner of this room to the
exit chamber.

LEVEL 14: THE INMOST DENS
-------------------------
14EXIT.LMP: 00:58, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to get both keys and then access the exit.  If you're having
trouble getting across certain gaps, try running to increase your speed.
("Run" in PC Doom games is typically enabled by holding down the Shift key.)
Notes on the making of this demo: There are a few different ways to get to the
exit from the level's entry point; This demo shows one of the most basic paths.
A few seconds before opening the blue-keyed door, I pause to demonstrate a
small elevator which can be used to get back out of the water if you fall in.

15REDALT.LMP: 00:34, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Demonstrates two alternate and faster methods for accessing the red key.
Both methods involve defeating a low barrier which blocks access to a teleport
pad in the corner of the red-key room.
The first method involves jumping the barrier by "strafe running" (using a
simultaneous combination of Run-forward plus Strafe-sideways) from the corner
of the room.
The second method involves activating the window-mounted switch (which drops
the barrier) from inside and below, at its lower-left edge.

15SEC.LMP: 02:39, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows one path for accessing all "official" Secrets.
Note that a Secrets score of 90% is the normal maximum for this map, because a
narrow secret area is located just before the raised edge of a teleporter, and
the player character is usually lifted by the edge of the teleporter pad before
the character's axis contacts the secret area.

15COMBAT.LMP: 8:55, Skill 4
Notes: Ultra-Violence combat demo with maximum Kills, Items and Secrets.
Notes on the making of this demo: To save here time I use the "edge activation"
method on a few of the switches, and I tend to grab items as I encounter them,
so I don't have to go running back to get them later.
During Automap-enhanced playback I noticed that a couple of Lost Souls survived
this game: When the last Pain Elemental monster explodes, two of the resulting
Lost Souls get flung through nearby walls, and are effectively removed from the
level... However you may still hear them growling as I head for the exit...
The Secret score of 90% achieved here is the normal maximum for this map (see
the notes for demo 15SEC.LMP, above).

Notes: Ultra-Violence combat demo with maximum Kills, Items and Secrets.
Notes on the making of this demo: I try to pick up most of the armor helmets
first, because they can be harder to spot later when the courtyard becomes
littered with bodies (and missing one means you don't get a 100% Items score).

19SOUL.LMP: 00:18, Deathmatch, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to acquire the Soul Sphere.

In this demo the player strafe-runs to jump onto a triangular platform in the
corner of a room.  Another way to get to that platform is to raise a pedestal
to use as a "stepping stone" to get to there.  To raise that pedestal, Activate
a switch on the wall (the switch closest to the stairs) 2 or 3 times, then jump
down to the pedestal, and then Run to reach the corner platform.  (If you miss
the jump, look for a secret panel in the opposite corner of the room, and go
through to get back to the central courtyard.)
Notes on the making of this demo: I played in single-player Deathmatch mode to
allow me to start the game in a position close to the central courtyard.

19SWITCH.LMP: 00:32, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows the location of a nonfunctional switch that is located just above
and behind the blue key.
To the left of this green switch is a short lift/elevator, which is in the
lowered position next to the blue key.  That switch was originally set up to
drop the lift temporarily, providing access to the key and courtyard.  This
would have also allowed the player to grab the key and ride back up to the area
where the switch is.  But the lift is permanently lowered due to a minor flaw
in the map; and as a result the switch that was meant to control the lift does
nothing useful.
Notes on the making of this demo: To access the northwest building I use the
same trick shown in 19BLDALT.LMP, above.

Notes: Demonstrates the trick for opening an "unofficial" secret box/niche in
the northwest quadrant of the map.  (The trick involves activating a distant,
special switch.)
This hidden area is easy to overlook during a typical game, and has no direct
effect on a player's scores.

Here's how: Activate all 4 switches, then walk up to the raised platform and
Activate it like a switch.  The edge of the platform drops down momentarily,
allowing you to get on and ride up.

LEVEL 23: BARRELS O' FUN
------------------------
23START.LMP: 00:41, Skill 5
Notes: Demonstrates a couple of ways to get past the first hall of the level,
without getting hurt by the surrounding barrels if they explode.
The first method shown is a simple run to the south end of the room, where the
player can find safety through a door.
The second method involves using single bullets to push certain barrels away
from one another, to cause a break in the chain reaction between them.  The
bullet method is demonstrated here twice; once to destroy the northern-most
cluster while leaving the rest standing, then again to stagger the destruction
of all the barrels, leaving the northern barrels for last.

LEVEL 27: MONSTER CONDO (5 demos)
-----------------------
27TMPSEC.LMP: 00:47, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to access a special "secret room" that becomes inaccessible 30
seconds after entering the level (and is frequently overlooked as a result).

27ONEMAP.LMP: 00:44, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Demonstrates that it's impossible to pick up both of the Computer Area
Map items during a single-player game.  This accounts for why you can't get an
Items score of 100% on this level.

27SEC.LMP: 01:07, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows one path for accessing all "official" Secrets.
Note that a maximum Secret score of 87% is normal for this map, because a
teleporter pad is flagged as secret, and the player character's axis cannot
normally contact the surface of the pad before teleportation occurs.

27COMBAT.LMP: 07:20, Skill 4
Notes: Ultra-Violence combat demo with maximum Kills, Items and Secrets.
Notes on the making of this demo: I can't pick up the second Computer Area Map
item (see the demo 27ONEMAP.LMP, above), so the Items score is only 98%.
The Secret score of 87% achieved here is the normal maximum for this map (see
the notes for demo 27SEC.LMP, above).

LEVEL 28: THE SPIRIT WORLD (2 demos)
--------------------------
28EXIT.LMP: 01:17, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows how to acquire both keys, and then navigate a path to the exit.
Also shows how to open both ends of the tunnel where the yellow key is found.
Notes on the making of this demo: The chamber just outside of the exit portal
is opened by one of 3 impact-activated switches.  In this demo I punch-activate
the switches; but a chainsaw, pistol, shotgun, or chaingun will also work.
Each end of the L-shaped "yellow-key tunnel" is initially sealed off by a door.
The tunnel door that's closest to the exit can actually be opened from either
side.  I chose to open it from outside in order to show which wall switch
controls that door.

LEVEL 29: THE LIVING END
------------------------
29ALL.LMP: 02:51, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Demonstrates one path used to get to all accessible areas of the map,
and then get to the exit portal.
Note that when using Id's original Doom II engine, a score of "SECRET 0%" at
the end of the level is a normal result; There are no "official" secret areas
on this map.

Notes: Similar to 30WIN.LMP, above; Just another example.

a little.

30RUN4IT.LMP: 00:23, Skill 4, no monsters
Notes: Shows that it is possible (though difficult) to run straight onto the
central pillar from the switch, even when playing keyboard-only.

30BADBOX.LMP: 00:40, Skill 2
Notes: Demonstrates that on map 30, nothing alive is immune to spawn-fragging:
If a monster spawns at your location (or directly above or below you), you're
killed.  This is true even if you're "invincible" through the use of cheat
codes, or "invulnerable" through the use of an Invulnerability Sphere.
The lesson here: Keep one eye on the sky while you're playing this level. ;)

LEVEL 32: GROSSE (2 demos)
----------------
32EXIT.LMP: 00:20, Skill 4
Notes: Shows how to exit this level.
To get on the exit-switch platform, try Running southwest onto its northeast
corner, or southeast onto its northwest corner.
Note that this level does not appear in the German edition of Doom II.

32COMBAT.LMP: 00:58, Skill 4
Notes: Ultra-Violence combat demo with maximum Kills, Items and Secrets.
In some earlier versions of Doom II: Hell on Earth, it was impossible to get a
100% Secrets score on this map because none of the map's hidden areas were
flagged as Secret.  In version 1.9 of the game, all hidden areas in GROSSE are
"official" Secrets, and so apply towards the final score.
Notes on the making of this demo: To save time I exit the level without going
back for the leftover energy cells.
Note that this level does not appear in the German edition of Doom II.
