        Hey i dont want to be anoyying lol but in my brutal doom cfg file i Just have these lines

        Zdoom = "/opt/retropie/ports/zdoom/zdoom +set fullscreen 1 -iwad %ROM%"
        default = "zdoom"

        Question is is this where i edit the -file to IT and at the end?

          @retrofreak89 no the -file goes in the Emulators.cfg where you added the brutal doom mod info

              @edmaul69 thing is i didnt create a cfg for brutal doom i Just added a few lines in the zdoom.ini and brutal Just boots up i do have one cfg file and it tells me this
              zdoom = "/opt/retropie/ports/zdoom/zdoom +set fullscreen 1 -iwad %ROM%"
              default = "zdoom"
              So not sure now can i just add the lines to the ini like i did with brutal?
              Edit
              Yeah i checked i only have one cfg file with the lines i posted brutal doom it self doesnt have a cfg i got it to run by adding few lines in the ini.
              Now in totally confused in what to do because i do want to add a hud to my game

                @retrofreak89 read my post how i told you to add brutal doom mod. It is the same way you would add any mod. You shouldnt edit your zdoom.ini with anything. Brutal doom mod for example doesnt work with all games. So some games will never work with that in your zdoom.ini. You really should read my instructions to do it the right way.

                  @edmaul69 i did it the way a YouTube video told me to do it i Will read over it again in other post to see if i can get it to run your way hehe

                  Edit: i just read over the other post to do it your way but i do know how to do it with Scythe now but for brutal doom in not quite sure?
                  I only got it to run with the ini.
                  Do install brutal doom the same exact way as Scythe?

                  Also does project brutality work on pi?
                  But in guessing u install it same way as Scythe?

                    @retrofreak89 yes every mod install the same way i showed with scythe and scythe with brutal doom mod. You just add a" -file /item_location/filename" before the " at the end.

                        @retrofreak89 yes. Put it before other mods because it is a map. It probably isnt neccessary which order you put it in, but i just like to keep order to the madness

                          @retrofreak89 also here is how i set the emulators.cfg for that game. notice i added freelook set full screen as well

                          default = "zdoom"
                          zdoom = "/opt/retropie/ports/zdoom/zdoom +set fullscreen 1 +set freelook 1 -iwad /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/doom2.wad  -file
                          /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/hellonearthstarterpack.wad-file /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/brutalv20b.pk3"

                            @edmaul69 continuing from last post. the reason freelook is set here instead of in the config is because i dont want freelook in every game. its annoying in games that dont use it.
