Yellow key in Doom map Unholy Cathedral (original) (raw)

How to acquire the yellow key in Doom map Unholy Cathedral:

There are 4 large teleporter pads around the perimeter of the wide courtyard that dominates the center of the map. Go to that courtyard, and step on the northwest teleporter (check your Automap to find the correct teleporter).

You'll re-appear at the northeast corner of a small, square area, and you'll be facing 2 doors at the opposite corner. Approach the doors and open the right-hand (west) door, and step through. Turn right, to face north; then follow the left-hand wall along the curving hallway (north, west, and south), until you come to another pair of doors. Open the right-hand (west) door and step through.

Follow the right-hand wall forward (west), until you see a gap in the floor where some green slime is visible. Carefully step across the gap, and a part of the west wall will open, revealing a slime-floored room beyond. Go into this room and follow either the left or right wall around to a teleporter located at the far/north end of the room.

You'll materialize on a teleport receiver pad at the center of the large courtyard, and you'll be facing northeast. This teleport receiver is surrounded by 4 large box-like structures. The southern-most box should now be open, and the yellow key can be found inside, near the back wall.
