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.

GZDoom is stored in the "/opt/gzdoom" if you're using our official Debian archives.

If anyone else is maintaining a separate version for Arch, you'll have to open it in Engrampa or whatever your archive manager is and find it out.
