Maps fixes made by catoptromancy. Changelog made by him:
E1M1 - Fixed massive drawseg overflow on cliff, with doors closed. Only a minor coop issue now.
E1M5 - Railings in crate room simplified. Some tweaks in main area near start, mostly visible through doors. Blue key area simplified a good bit. Lighting fixtures in various places simplified. Removed 2 doors at start.
E2M2 - Simplified and squared many light fixtures and details.
E2M4 - Small VPO in long hallway, removed a border.
E2M6 - Drawsegs, light pillars and stairs.
E2M9 - Simplify star near end, undetail areas near start.
E3M7 - Move around some vertexes in the secret.
E3M9 - Extremely light touch, just combined a few stairs.
E4M2 - Lowered and joined ceiling sectors right next to start.
E4M7 - Ungradient light in one corner.
MAP02 - Drawsegs not nearly as glaring, no VPO. Mostly light gradients and a few details.
MAP03 - Remove a couple light gradients.
MAP05 - Remove floor crack in lava area. Tiny VPO
MAP08 - Simplified ceiling lights and gradients.
MAP09 - Simplify small redrock area.
MAP10 - Mostly trim light gradients.
MAP11 - Light fixtures and some detail.
MAP12 - Everything. Still far from finished, but its vanilla now. Gameplay is nearly untouched. I did not focus on texture alignment or good selection, will need lots of work. Lots of HOM, most of it is bearable. Kept railroad tracks and the most basic of factory details. There is tons of very long sight paths, if someone wants to remake areas so you cant see entirely through map. Details can be readded if areas are redesigned without long sight paths. This is vanilla and is a perfect base for someone to redetail and touch up. Playtested with nomonsters to exit, checking on trouble spots. The single archvile that can jump you isnt high enough to VPO...that I know of. Linking resources at bottom of post for research and backup wads of various amounts of progress.
MAP18 - Tiny VPO, modified sky area in corner.
MAP20 - Removed one of the three little rooms with fancy effects after yellow key door.
MAP22 - Remove a good bit of ceiling detail from last room, a few other nice details.
MAP25 - Simplify a few things near start. Adjust 3 key room.
MAP29 - Lots of simplified geometry. Many pillars at start created solidseg overflows, remade into larger but fewer pillars. MAP29 backups in link at bottom of post include VPO free versions with intact pillars...mine are kinda bad, if someone wants to remake them.
Tested to exit with -nomonsters,

!!!There's still bugs and unused data in the map, need better investigation!!!
it partialy fix the issue 698.
Sorry, I should've noticed this long before https://github.com/freedoom/freedoom/pull/699 was finalized.
This one sprite is 3 pixels too far to the left compared to the 2 sprites around it.
Re-align the lines on BRICK and MOSSBRIK so they are at approximately the same height as the brick lines on the original Plutonia BRICK and MOSSBRIK. I just eyeballed the height of the lines.
A generic term like this isn’t really suitable for trademark, nor
likely to ever be disputed. The community and the engine both heavily
bias toward “episode” and indeed most other games do.
Closes: #682
Implementing sprites from the Discord channel. Credits are as follows
???/Freedoom team - base Combat Slug sprites
HorrorMovieGuy - A to F frames (and their rotations)
Craneo - G to T frames (and their rotations)
Height has been extended to 128, and new patches have been added (LFALLx) and are used instead of RWDM11x. I am deliberately leaving the original patches as-is, for the sake of PWAD compatibility.
MAP05: Fixed one secret area so that the game displays the message before the player collects the hidden automap and not after. Also added caution bars for a staircase as a minor decoration.
MAP08: Lowered one platform leading to a secret area so that no jumping is required.
