Looks like you’re missing a library, libdbus-1-dev perhaps. Perhaps the binary as well. But I would have expected that to fail on the #include.

Try installing packages libdbus-1 and libdbus-1-dev and see what happens.

thanks that did the trick install doom 3 and runs but no sound.

OK on successfully getting that far.:+1:

What port is the monitor/TV connected to? Only the main HDMI port on the Pi 4 has audio capability. That’s the port nearest the USB C connector. Is that the port you are using?

Any sound from the audio/AV jack? Plug in some headphones and find out.

While not mentioning Doom, the following link is appropriate and may give you some ideas.

And if you are interested in other Doom games, setting up the original Doom is covered at the end of this tutorial.
