Sure. If you know the mapname, you can bring down the console and type:

/spdevmap (mapname)

Or, if you've got other quicksaves in that level, just go to "load game" and
load the quicksave you want.

IIRC the game has to be started with cheats enabled to allow this, i.e.
adding "+set sv_cheats 1" or similar to the exe parameters. Can't check
this now but google should help.

By the way, do you know how to select the skill level when using /spdevmap?
I want to play "I am a Death Incarnate" level but it seems to have gone to a
lower level when using the /spdevmap command. I looked for the skill level
setting but I can't figure it out. Thanks!

Hmmmm...

Perhaps starting the game at DI and loading the map?

Hm. No, that would revert like you said.

That's a puzzler. Sorry, I'm afraid that's beyond me. Have you tried the forums
at Planetwolfenstein.com?

Not yet, but I did look at their list of commands and they only list the
most common ones which don't seem to have anything to do with skill level
selection. I'll keep trying. Thanks!
