The secret exit needs to be on E4M2 not E4M3. This is the simplest way
to achieve that, and in my view better than the alternative (disabling
the existing secret exit and grafting a new one into the other map)
This breaks the secret exit (needs to be on M2, not M3) and the ability
to exit M8 (which relies on E1M8's BossDeath lowering sectors tagged 666
to lowest when all _barons_ are dead - for E4M8, A_BossDeath has the
same effect but only when all _spiderdemons_ are dead)
Import maps from the 2011-Cacoward-winning episode Double Impact, as
donated by its authors, Ralphis and RottKing. The intention is that
these are used as Freedoom's episode 4.

Add font characters for '/' and '?', needed by some text strings.
Adjust the vertical height of the ':' character, and remove some
leftover menu graphics that are no longer needed.
Some source ports (PrBoom, Eternity Engine, etc.) come with their own
PWAD files that include custom text graphic lumps for extended menus.
Include some overrides in Freedoom for common ones, so that when
playing in these ports the menus have a consistent look and feel.
Some of the text graphics on the options and sound menus were
misaligned using the new generated graphics. Adjust these so that
they are spaced out more evenly.
Remove the big text graphic images used for the menus and the
intermission screen. Instead, generate these graphics programatically
from a script. This allows them to be easily changed and extended
as desired.
A classic ZDoomism (implicit passuse): A door (sector 204) could not be
opened due to its west side (linedef 1208) being blocked by a walk
trigger (linedef 1201). This left both door unable to be opened, and
walk trigger unable to be activated. The latter left the player stuck in
the immediate area, unable to finish the level.
The simplest fix, applied here, is to move the walk trigger to the other
side of the door (linedef 1214). The player must still walk through the
door and "see" the blue key vanish to escape the maze.

These are some initial PC speaker sounds that cover most of the common
sound effects, made by GhostlyDeath. Some discussion can be seen in
the thread on Doomworld:

Change comments:
Map15:
-Removed an impassible line in Red key area, now cacodemons can reach
players without trouble.
-Replaced an Imp for a Cacodemon
-Removed block sound lines in the red key area where 2 shotgunners can
be found near of the lift.
-Added "block Monster" lines for the imps that are near of the
chaingunner and shotgunners. so imps cannot be killed by them.
Map28
-Removed 4 chaingunners on the yellow key swicht, now the enemies that
will appear there would be defined by the skill level:
Easy: Zombieman
Normal: Shotgunner
Hard: Shotgunner
-Removed 2 hell knights on the yellow key area, now they are replaced
by imps.
-Removed the floor damaged on the blue key are where players find the
swicht where the rocket launcher is found.
-Removed the revenants on the blue key area near of the bloodfalls.
now they are replaced by chaingunners on all skills. this change was
made due revenants were to hard to kill in that place and also a waste
of ammo, now chaingunners provide a bit of challenge while they can be
killed easily.
Those are the final revisions for the maps. and i dont going to update
them until more players tells if the maps are still harder for them

Replace the current poor-quality handcrafted GUS configuration with
a script that programatically generates an optimized configuration
file based on statistical analysis of music from various popular WAD
files.
The PLAYPAL generation script (playpal.py) generates the full PLAYPAL
lump from the base file, but this actually contained all the palettes.
Truncate to just the main one.
Thanks to Fabian Greffrath for reporting this.
With a couple of exceptions, the majority of OPL instruments sound
better when adjusted down by one octave. It seems likely that the
original BSD instruments were supposed to sound this way and we've
been playing the wrong notes all this time.
