      Hi, I am new to retropie and I am having some trouble launching Doom. I have read other forums on this topic and used the wiki and I have had no success. I am running a raspberry pi 3 B and I am on retropie 4.1.8. I have installed prboom and zdoom. I have both a prboom and a Doom wad in my ports doom folder. And I have a doom.sh file. When boot up retropie I see no ports emulation section just the main retropie. Any help would be appreciated and I will add pictures if necessary.

        @N0va you need to go to /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg and copy the ports section and paste it in /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg. Then restart emulationstation and it should show up.

          @edmaul69 I am sorry but you would not happen to know what the ports section is called in the .cfg file.
