Make sure you have compatibility mode set to Default, anything other than that will not make certain objects in the game (mostly pushable items) work correctly.

Weird that that got set to anything other than default, since I haven't messed with it in months. Isn't it possible to define a compatflag value in MAPINFO that cannot be overwritten by cvars? Maybe zeroing out options like compat_crossdropoff there would be a good idea for future updates. There's also compatmode which I know a little less about, might also be useful.

Can anyone say in what missions the red skull can be used? I don't want to review all past maps.

You can "changelevel mapXX" where XX is the number of the map you want to warp to (01-99); still keeping your inventory and the state of your playthrough.
If you have the althud enabled, check Kills or Items if you found everything. If still unsure, type "give allmap" to reveal the whole automap and pan over it to check for red lines.
Or use the "items" and "countitems" commands to list every item still in the map with X, Y & Z coordinates. Use "warp X Y Z" to warp to them.

Which map? I'm currently on Crescent Moon Manor and I had no problems with pushable blocks.

Why is the Backpack given so late in the game? It would be much more useful BEFORE the Hell, not AFTER it... It's actually used only in one level, Spider Mansion.

To be quite fair, it's one of the thing I might rework in a future build. Perhaps I'll give something more cool as a reward.

Golden Souls 3?????!!!!!!

Future projects. Good thing there are be new maps, monsters, weapons, items and the codings.

There are two trees in Rimy Residence you can get stuck behind in the first outside area(not the very start of the level), forcing you to noclip your way out.

If you update gzdoom, do you have to start from the beginning?

Depends on the version. If it's a hotfix, 4.1.x for example, probably not. Bigger updates like 4.x.0 or x.0.0 most definitely change something major internally, making all your previous saves incompatible. The same goes for ACS.
If a mod that uses it gets updated, all saves made with the previous version will be invalidated. Same goes for if you, for whatever reason, play with a mod that adds a new object, then remove said mod and then reload the save. The game tries to reload a missing/unknown object and aborts with an error.

Tl;dr: Refrain from updating until you finish larger mods like GS. Or keep seperate GZDoom versions on your hard drive.

Is there a way to get the maps only + the mario jump?

I frankly recommend to have fun with the TC as it is. But if you really want to, you still have doom editors like SLADE!

I cobbled this together real quick. I hope you're cool with it, Batandy. Otherwise I will remove it again.
Attached are a modified DEC_WEPS and MAPINFO. The former removes the editor numbers from all weapons and ammo pickups, the latter assigns their editor numbers to vanilla Doom equivalents.

For the jump height, grab m8f's Ultimate Custom Doom viewtopic.php?f=43&t=64678 and set the jump multiplier to 1.875

Last but not least, upon starting the game, type "give token_hudenabler" in the console otherwise you will have no HUD.
