Re: Stuck on 'The Gate'
The Gate must have been very haphazardly developed, because with vanilla Duke, I was able to beat this TC way back when. Using eDuke32, it requires noclip on E1M6 (Subarctica) because it's impossible to surface in the first underwater opening. On E4L6 (Overlords) the game won't count brains being destroyed at times, requiring you to reload your game. Also, a sprite-based elevator in one of the areas doesn't work properly, once again requiring you jetpack around it, or use noclip. The TC seems full of level geometry that kills you if you touch it this time around (probable that it was like this originally, and I'm just now noticing it.) One of the stranger bugs is at the very end of E2L5 (Welcome Mat) where a sector near the Overlord is actually tagged for exiting the map, allowing you exit without killing the Overlord. It then picks up with regular Duke maps that fill the rest of the episode.

Perhaps someone could update this TC to get it to work with eDuke32 (as well as fixing the zillions of bugs in it?)
