1. The player passes North through a set of sliding doors (polyobjects).
2. After passing the doors the player enters an elevator.
3. The elevator lowers until it reaches the lower floor.
4. The player leaves the elevator and moves South into a corridor.
In other words, the player is in a lower level that passes under the upper level, including being under the sliding glass doors.

That's exactly what I ended up doing. Of course this meant duplicating a complicated elevator that I had built, but that was mostly a simple matter of cut and paste. I had posted a question about silent teleports in an elevator in the ZDooM forums, and have worked out a seamless transition for the player from one elevator to the next.

I'm working on another Half-Life mod for GZDooM, this time called Paranoid. It's a 5-map hub that is mission-driven. Using png format images (including for many of the actors) and GZDooM's 3D and dynamic lights features, I am able to create environments that are virtually indistinguishable from Half-Life. More information at DooM Nexus.

I'm working to wrap up the first map, and you may have seen on the ZDooM forums that I was struggling with some issues with slopes in 3D space. Anyhow, I resolved that issue, and put up some screenshots just for the object that I constructed. There are links on that thread, but I'll link them here too. Meanwhile, I have created high-res sprites for some non-player characters, and want to put them into the wad before I take screenshots. So, it may be a few more days before I put up screenies.
