Doom II level 15, Industrial Zone: Red key (alternate methods)
Shows three alternative ways to get the red key in PC Doom II level 15, Industrial Zone. (The 'original' way is covered here: https://youtu.be/NlbzfyAXIpE .) Enable Captions for on-screen notes, and see below for additional information.
For a video on how to acquire the blue and yellow keys, see https://youtu.be/fOcKuHKNv3A and for a map showing all keys, see https://classicdoom.com/maps/d2keys/15.htm
The first method shown here involves hopping a low barrier that blocks access to a teleport pad in the corner of the red-key room. This is done by 'strafe running' (using a simultaneous combination of Run-forward plus Strafe-sideways) across the tops of some low boxes near the barrier.
The second method involves activating the window-mounted switch (which drops the barrier) from inside and below, at its lower-left edge.
Finally, the third method shown is to run/strafe-run across the stacks of boxes located between the outside ledge and the red key.
Note that you can still get pretty much everywhere, and with maximum scores, with or without the red key. The red-keyed door is an obvious way into that northeast building, but it's not the only way.
