+Enhanced OpenGL port of the official DOOM source code that also supports
+Heretic, Hexen, and Strife.
+
+This requires fmodapi.
+
+Optional compile-time dependency: fluidsynth (autodetected).
+
+See below for optional runtime dependencies.
+
+gzdoom is only a game engine. To actually play the game, you'll need
+the game data (IWAD file) from one of the supported games. These include
+Doom, Ultimate Doom, Final Doom, FreeDoom, Heretic, Hexen, and Strife.
+Place the .wad file(s) in /usr/share/games/doom.
+
+If you don't own any of the supported games, you can install one or more
+of these slackbuilds.org packages to get a playable game:
+
+freedoom, doom_shareware_data, heretic_shareware_data, hexen_demo_data
+
+To hear the in-game music, there are several options. In the game menu,
+select "Options | Sound Options" and set "MIDI Device" to one of the
+below:
+
+FMOD (the default) - Install ff8dls and set the console variable
+snd_midipatchset to "/usr/share/sounds/dls/ff8.dls" (from the in-game
+console or by editing ~/.gzdoom/zdoom.ini). Alternatively,
+if you dual-boot with Windows, use something like
+/dosC/windows/system32/drivers/gm.dls (replace dosC with the mountpoint
+of your C: drive in Windows).
+
+FluidSynth - Install fluidsynth (before building gzdoom) and fluid-soundfont.
+
+Timidity - Install TiMidity++ and either eawpats or freepats, and set up
+/etc/timidity/timidity.cfg to use it.
+
+GUS or OPL - Nothing extra required; these are software emulations of
+classic soundcards from the early 1990s.
+
+While you're in the Sound Options menu, it's probably a good idea to set
+"Output System" to "ALSA" (otherwise, the default will use OSS emulation).
