+====== GZDoom ======
+GZDoom is a source port. Based off ATB Doom and NTDoom, has since added practically full support for Boom, Chex Quest, Heretic, Hexen and Strife; and several games have been developed specifically for it. It has added many additional features, including slopes, uncapped fps and z-clipping.
+"The demons... they are everywhere. Must... kill them all!". Doomguy from DOOM.
+This system scrapes metadata for the “ports” group(s) and loads the gzdoom set from the currently selected theme, if available.
+Grouped with the “ports” group of systems.

+==== Quick reference ====
+  * **Emulator:** GZDoom
+  * **Folder:** ''roms/gzdoom/''
+  * **Accepted ROM formats:** ''.wad'', ''.iwad'', ''.pwad'', ''.gzdoom''
+===== BIOS =====
+No GZDoom emulator in Batocera needs a BIOS file to run.
+===== ROMs =====
+Place your GZDoom ROMs in ''/userdata/roms/gzdoom/''.
+Files MD5 sums: https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Doom_files
+==== .WAD and .PK3 (non compressed files)====
+Each game needs a .WAD (Where's all data?) or .IWAD (Internal WAD), it's the main resource file for a Doom-engine game, containing all the game's original sounds, levels, and graphics.
+Some files have conflicting names; GZDoom provides you with possible aliases.
+==== .IWAD, .IPK3 and .PWAD (info lumps) ====
+In addition, some "total conversion"-type mods, can be played as their own IWAD; an IWAD is actually identified by its content rather than its name.
+In order to play a custom level designed for any of the above games you have to have that particular game's full IWAD. If you do not have the necessary IWAD, you will get an error message on startup.
+Custom IWADs can be detected. These custom IWADs need to have the .iwad or alternatively .ipk3 (not the traditional .wad and .pk3) extension, and they need to include an IWADINFO lump.  It can also contain DEFBINDS, DEFCVARS, and KEYCONF lumps.
+IWad:
+<code>
+{
+	Name = "My Kickass Custom Game"
+	AutoName = "MyCustomGame"
+	Game = "Doom"
+	Config = "Doom"
+	StartupType = "Hexen"
+	BannerColors = "ff ff ff", "c9 00 00"
+}
+</code>
+A PWAD, patch wad, is a WAD containing lumps of data created by a user as an add-on.
+==== .ZIP, .7ZIP, .PK3 or .PK7 (compressed files) ====
+The PK3 file format is the same as the ZIP file format, and is treated exactly the same by GZDoom.
+==== Custom mods ====
+Custom mods can be used by creating a new text file named after the game with the extension ''.gzdoom''. For example:
+<file - Aliens Eradication.gzdoom>
+-iwad DOOM2.WAD -file ALIENS_ERADICATION_TC_2_0.pk3 ERADICATION_MAPSET_2_0.wad
+</file>
+<WRAP center round info>
+The command must be on one line and the casing of the filenames and extensions must match exactly.
+</WRAP>
+Additional music can be added to ''system/configs/gzdoom'' in the ''fm_banks'' & ''soundfonts'' folders respectively.
