Ditto. I did it ONCE, put I've never been able to repeat it. The platform
actually comes down, and the goody room is behold it. Does it depend on a
button somewhere?

You don't.  Just stroll on by and kill those bozo's past the next door.  Walk 
up to the exit door.  You MIGHT hear something in all the confusion of battle, 
and you might not.  That "something" is the sound of the ledge lowering to the 
level of the floor.  Go back and ta-da!  Open secret area!

You can't, without cheating.  But if you finish the rest of the level
first, the ledge will come down to you.

Yeah, just fight your way ahead to the next room kill 'em all, and come
back for the goodies. There is a pressure pad and you can hear it when
you step on it.

The ledge comes down after you go through the door to the exist room.
After going through the room with the imps, go down the hallway at the
opposite end of the room, and through the door there (watch out for
nasties on the other side!).  WHen you've gotten about 10 feet into
the room on the other side, the platform will come down in the
previous room.

Basically, go through the door, walk about 10 feet in, then turn
around and go back into the imp-room, and you'll find that the
platform has lowered.

Oh, so that's what that sound was. I tried to place it, but after  while,
I just ignored it. Thanks!

Level 1,1:
To get to the secret door behind the imp on the ledge, kill him (not necessary,
but makes your life easier) and the soldier on the ground. Go to the secret
door in the left of the passage (just because), then go through the far door.
Kill the imp there, then go around and get the stuff in the room. Now, go BACK
through the other door, and the ledge will be down. Collect the stuff in there,
including the first shotgun in the game...

<ANH!> Wrong! Think again! Maybe at your level of play, but at
Ultra-Violence the first shotgun is that little alcove with the stairs and
two pillars. If you can get past the seargents, you can have your shotgun
then! Also, there are, of cousre, a lot more guards/imps/seargents
whatever in all those rooms. Like 5 guys in the last room (before the
exit)!

I stand corrected. I happened to be playing on skill level 3 at the time. In
UV, the shotguns are right in the beginning...

	Actually, a shotgun can be procured in any difficulty level on
E1M1.  At the end of the level, once you open the door to the exit, a
secret passage opens (you can't see it, of course).  Instead of exiting
the level, go back to the large open slime pit with the zig-zag path
through it (where there were imps shooting fireballs down on you, and
enemies were standing in your way before you blew them all away).  The
raised platform on which the Imps were standing has now been lowered
revelaing a passage way .. which leads to a shotgun.
