      @herb_fargus I have not tried adding the music yet. I may try next weekend, work has been stealing my evening play time at home. Right now, the sound effects work great!

        @edmaul69 I will be trying this out probably next weekend. I hope this works! I gotta head into work later this afternoon. Thanks! I will report any issues I have.

        I will install zdoom, and then update from binary first.

          @herb_fargus I installed the mp3 renamed music files for Doom. No music. I did rename all the files for the proper coding for epsisode and level... as is on the tutorial. :(

          Although, my Raspberry Pi has a lot of faint static. I do have the audio forced out of the 3.5mm jack, as right now I have it hooked up to my monitor, not a television. I am using Creative A60 Speakers. The sound GREAT on my computer. The Pi, not so much. I suppose I should look up the fixing audio, eh?

              @SpacedInvader something i recently learned about .sh files in emulationstation. You dont have to make them execteable. Feel free to just make the Doom 2 - Master Levels.sh in your ports section with spaces and everything. Then right click on the file and give it 0777 permissions. No need to do the chmod +x. Then add the contents i posted above.

                @SpacedInvader also for your audio problem on the 3.5mm jack add this line to your /boot/config.txt

                disable_audio_dither=1

                    @edmaul69 Okay, Got Zdoom uploaded, and the everything works PERFECTLY! (Love the scrolling skulls artwork background!)

                    Its seems the wads from my CD Master Levels for Doom 2 do not show up in the list. Those that are on the list, I do not have... confusing. I loaded just five from my CD to the Pi just to make sure everything was reading and worked. First stumbling block... almost there!

                      @SpacedInvader look up zdoom master levels. You might have to rename them. There is a tutorial for zdoom master levels.

                          @SpacedInvader yup. But for others who come searching for an answer i would alter the title from "ports not working properly" to "doom ports not working properly"
