Description:	A void-style deathmatch map, constructed entirely out of 3d floors. Uses FraggleScript for a few special effects like teleporters or 3d elevators. Don't mind the Pac-Man theme, it just adds a little variety to things. :P It seemed that a feature had been removed from Doom Legacy, namely the one that keeps items respawning at their original height. Because of that, the original version of .Void was unplayable (serves me right for not testing properly). This fix keeps some floors raised so objects wont fall through 3D floors anymore, at the cost of some visual annoyances. But now it should be playable at least.

Anonymous	GREAT; INSANE. SOURCEPORT SPECIAL FEATURES. These words describe Void in total	x
Anonymous	This is basically one of those Quake 3 Arena "floating in space" maps but in Doom Legacy, which is nice. It's very simple though, and it's a shame the author didn't do more with the concept.	x
Anonymous	Exl is my lovar	x
Anonymous	If you like legacy, then maybe you can use a haircut. Or a wad of hair gel, for practical purposes only. Sort of like this map. If you havent fallen off the wagon yet, you may as wall fall off this toaster oven of oceanic disposition. - Ramza	x

Description             : A void-style deathmatch map, constructed
                          *entirely* out of 3d floors. Uses FraggleScript
                          for a few special effects like teleporters or 3d
                          elevators. Don't mind the Pac-Man theme, it just

                          respawning at their original height. Because
                          of that, the original version of .Void was
                          unplayable (serves me right for not testing
