gz doom not running for me properly please help :(

Forum rules
Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

but i will add that if i try loading mods via ZDL and use the latest version of gz i think it is automatically setting it back to Vulkan which i do not know how to fix.. so still some questions unanswered lol

but yeah thanks guys i wasn't even expecting a response if im honest!

sorry Mod i just kept thinking of things to say lol

right so i have been fiddling about and i have found the issue. it was the gz doom settings (obviously) lol

rendering was set to Vulkan and i switched to OPENGL ES i haven't tried OPENGL if it aint broke don't fix it as they say.

so yeah probably something i should have checked a while ago! but thanks all for the help

What's your GPU? Are the drivers up to date?
The way the screen melt/fade glitches up really badly makes me suspicious of issues related to the GPU or rendering.

Because you are a first time user. You can link them via imgur.

We also need to know how you load the game because the standard is:
Drag Doom 2.wad (which is in the GZDoom directory) to GZDoom and it loads. This is not using ZDL.
And also which GZDoom you are using and where the whole GZDoom directory is located.
