Interesting Wad, and a good find. It was confusing at first, but I eventually beat it. Are there enough Cyber Demons?

Hi Guys

I too crashed it but in Zdaemon. I thought it had to do with Zdaemon. I guess we could note when it crashes and fix it. I will post another oldie but goodie soon

I've had a look at the map and there appears to be some significant errors with the geometry. There are four unclosed sectors on the exterior of the map; sectors 403, 404, 470 and 472. This is more than likely the root cause of the crash.

At what point in the map does the crash occur?

I've just played through this map in almost latest 1.15 unstable, without causing a crash. Is it when you step into a specific area (an area I might happened not to have stepped into in my playthrough)?


Also, the alert log also doesn't pick up any unclosed sectors (usually it picks them up), though looking in Doom Builder, they are there as DaniJ says.

I noticed this too. Must be a flaw in the recently added alert suppression logic.

see broken maps fix important things even tho it's bad to have broken maps they help sometimes.

For anyone who's interested, here's the map with the erros fixed (unclosed sectors, overlapping lines):
