I think that is Episode 1 Map 8. Lets see what you have done. Killed the Demons at the beginning, ran down the coridore and two Hell knights pop out of the two doors. You have killed them and the walls drop down opening up the whole map. Then you click a switch and some stairs are revealed and you have walked over a transporter pad which transports you to a dark room with tons of wee beasties in and you die?

If all that is correct, then that's what happens at the end of episode 1. Apparently you die and go to hell, and that's where the 2nd episode starts!

Kind of the wrong forum, eh?

And, well, I just killed em... do a lot of strafing and, erm, shooting and you eventually kill them I know it`s a hard place...

Yes but I think he means after you kill the Hell Knights, when you transport into the dark room you die!

yeah just strafe around a bit and let them eat some shotgun shells, they are pretty easy enemies (especially compared to some of the ones in Doom 2), and they'll be dead in no time.

on a side note, if anyone is looking for a great source of user made .WAD files, check out doomworld.com , they have tons in their archive, and the best of the new maps get reviewed every sunday. although most of the really good new maps now require zdoom , which has pretty much become the standard for the Doom community, due to its advanced features. if someone made a port of zdoom for the GP32 that would be amazing! (although you would have to remove or at least disable some of the features that would be pointless on the GP32 due to its restrictions).

Actually I think the better doom version is the doomsday engine. This brings real accelerated textures and lighting to doom, Doom II, Heretic and Hexen.

They have never looked so good !
