SEWERS.MAP was an usused level for duke3d by levelord, released to the public later. it contains the billboard Guilty!
E3L1.MAP is a used map for duke3d. IT contains the sign Guilty!
I
if you lower the wall in front of the e3l7 bill board you can see the duke nukem movie poster.
i propose it was going to be used in sewers obviously, was scrapped, e3l7 was supposed to have the movie poster but got changed to still use the texture Guilty! and because obviously levelord had at one point used the movie poster there, i thik this is definitely true.
IIt maybe could have even contributed to the movie poster being in subway (e3l6.map) and maybe thats why the poster is so stretched and squished in the one level it ends up being visible in.
I discovered this at the beginning of last winter, so a long time ago now!

One of their biggest sins to not use Sewer.map in the game. It's still may favourite map layout by Levelord, next to Abyss.

Yeah, man! I love sewer maps. I've actually been sort of, lightly working on a flooded, tentacle-infested, sewer map for a bit, not too much is very done, mind you. I take a very long time making sure they look exactly like the default maps did, which involves looking at every crevice in the build editor, and that's is how I found this so long ago.

I've got a bit of a internal book of rules in my head now for duke nukem maps, mostly levelords, were made. blum's are a bit harder to replicate, more detail, less unaligned or overly squished texture/stretched, less open space, more mechanics, ect. and more perfect shading. But in my opinion levelords actually somehow capture that 90s feeling of playing duke more.

I will not settle for releasing a level I don't think I could change the file dates release online, say was another unreleased map, and have people not immediately know it's bullshit. Not that I'd do this, of course. ; - ) So it'll take a bit.
