[DOOM Historic] v1.0sw E1M3 pit

You've probably seen this one in Lee Killough's DOOM memorabilia page now archived in John Romero's site: http://www.rome.ro/lee_killough/

Changed from v1.0 to v1.1 was this pit. The switch was moved to the bottom of the pit while the pit itself doesn't rise when you walk in it. Combined with saving and loading, you can create some interesting effects, like making it rise faster while changing the texture, lowering the floor back down, and one particular random occurance that happens in this video.

Part 2 here (the "pit rising to the sky" glitch): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfcEfAyn500

I played the shareware Doom v1.0 back in 1994 - 1996 on the old 40 MHz computer. I remember all of it - especially the weird glitches.

I remember the save game feature did not work correctly for some reason. Once you loaded a game, some switches in the level would stop working. Example: e1m5 - the switch in the slime pool with the two lowering pillars that opens the large door to the rest of the level.

Oh so I guess that's why they call it pit
