Well it depends on what port and launcher you use I personaly use ZDoom (http://zdoom.org/files/zdoom-2.1.7.zip) and ZDL (http://biohazard.drdteam.org/download.php?id=zdl-30.zip) (ZDoom Launcher) and I can run patchs and wads togther no prob. First, set up ZDL then add your wads. hope that helps!

K well yeah you should still be able to use GZDoom. To set up the launcher press the preety button that says ZDL. A little drop menu should appear. Click Options. A menu should open that has two columes, IWADS and ports, and then click add on ports. Browse for GZDoom, click it and press ok. Then go to IWADs and click add. The find your Doom/Doom2/TNT/Plutonia IWAD and click ok. Close that menu and then go to the pwad list. Click add and browse for your add-ons. then click launch and off you go! :D I hope that made it clearer. And there is an Edit button. Please use it otherwise your posts eat up page space

a_demonic_lemon, edit your own post next time, like I did for you, so you don't keep double/triple/multiple etc. posting in the future. Read the Forum FAQ (http://forums.newdoom.com/faq.php) for further info on how to post on the forums.

Theres no need to go through all the effort with a launcher, not with GZDoom. Put the two wads in the folder where you have GZDoom installed, then click and drag both of them onto the GZDoom.exe. Then play, no more effort needed other than that.

I know that but if you set up the launcher in like 20 seconds to a minute then you wont have to go and do that, because it would run it every time it started if the WADs were still there right?

It would still take longer with the launcher. Every time you start it you would have to select your WAD's, or de-select them when you don't want to use them anymore. Its so much easier and quicker to just click and drag what WAD(s) you want to play with. But I guess with a launcher you could be a bit more organised, and you wouldn't have to navigate to your GZDoom folder every time, but personally I don't mind having to do that. It only takes a few seconds to get to the folder anyway.

Geez..
Here ya go lemon:
http://www.teamhellspawn.com/exl/files/launchtool_setup.exe
Here's a config I made if you want to use gzdoom with launchtool:
type = "LaunchTool engine file";
realname = "GZDoom";
executable = "gzdoom.exe";
demoext = "zdo";
filetypes
{
wad = "WAD files";
deh = "Dehacked files";
bex = "Extended Dehacked files";
lmp = "Lump files";
}
parameters
{
nosound = "No sound";
nomusic = "No music";
nosfx = "No sound FX";
}
There is a work around also if you dont want to make the above config, just rename your gzdoom.exe to zdoom.exe heh.
And if you'd rather just make a batch file, something like this should do:
@echo off
Gzdoom -file wadname1.wad wadname2.wad
