I have attempted to follow the advice in this reddit thread but all I get is Ultimate Doom to load, with no episode option for Sigil. I use this string at the bottom of the opening window of GZDoom when selecting the doom.wad Doom 1 wad: -file SIGIL.WAD SIGIL_SHREDS.wad alternately -file SIGIL.WAD -file SIGIL_SHREDS.wad The Sigil and Shreds wads are in a different directory than doom.wad . In the past this is just fine as double-clicking a wad will launch GZDoom and then I can select a main Doom game wad (doom.wad, doom2.wad etc.). Any idea what I'm doing wrong? How can I fix this? I want to play Sigil with the better soundtrack.

The way you're doing it assumes both wads are in the same directory as gzdoom.exe
Try copying both wads to where gzdoom.exe is

if you prefer to keep them in seperate directories, youll need to include the full filename path for SIGIL.wad and SIGIL_SHREDS.wad AND enclose them in quotation marks. you only need one -file argument.
i.e. -file "C:\doom\wads\SIGIL.WAD" "C:\doom\wads\SIGIL_SHREDS.WAD"

Or set the DOOMWADDIR environment variable, there are tutorials on the Internet on how to do that. That way almost all source ports (except the abomination that is Risen3D, who would've thought?) know what directory you keep your wads in.
