89.1helpWRKSYS::LASKYMon Oct 24 1994 08:279
    I'm a new Doomer and must be either a mental midget or my version is
    corrupted.  I cannot for the life of me get pass level 2. I have killed
    everything on all floors (even the creatures behind the columns) but
    after everything is dead I just walk into walls trying to get out!!!!
    
    I most be missing the big picture can someone help before I throw my PC
    out the window.

    Relax... someone will help you.... that's why we're here.
    ... I don't have my book with me and I don't remember that level..
    so stay cool, ... maybe I'll just install my Doom II on my office 
    system... yeah! that's the ticket!

89.3here's some hintsDAVE::MITTONToken rings happenMon Oct 24 1994 20:1614
    How far have you gotten with this level?  
    Have you only seen two rooms?
    
    I was stumped myself for a little bit, then I discovered that I could
    open the room with the plain bars on the left or SE end of the hall.
    The switch in that room controls a door in the starting room.
    
    Doom rule #3; when in doubt, try to open it.
    
    Actually the Automap gives some healthy clues. I've noticed that if
    there is a secret door in a room, the Automap will color it yellow
    or brown.

89.5How do I JUMP up to the key?ROMEOS::HARRIS_MASales ConsultantWed Nov 02 1994 12:015
    OK, I've also killed everything, hit the switche in the left red-bar
    room, went around and then I could 'see' the RED KEY. It seems to be
    unreachable since it's elevated. How do I JUMP up to get the key?

89.6No Jumping! DAVE::MITTONToken rings happenWed Nov 02 1994 18:317
    There is no "Jump Up" in Doom.  The only "jumping" is running (SHIFT
    side arrow) off of things and landing on something nearby and/or lower.
    
    Try skirting around that room to the left and you will find an
    opportunity to practice this new technique.
