### Using your own command line arguments

RetroBat allows for using your own command line arguments with the emulator.

To do so, create a .txt file and fill one argument per line:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="https://i.imgur.com/hr7OEao.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

Save the file with the ".gzdoom" extension and place it in the `roms\gzdoom` folder.

### Running mods

The method above also allows you also to start modded games.&#x20;

To do so, precise which game the mod will use (the mian iwad file), and which mod you want to start (pwad games), with the full path to the different files.\
\
An exemple, using "10 sectors" mod :\
\
![](https://990680527-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FexdzL60ZuqPLldz2AYta%2Fuploads%2FPKdVr8TQvRSWpEVG3vm4%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=68f462a9-fde8-4ce7-90a9-2d4c9d24e703)\
\
then, starting the games using the file `"10sector.gzdoom"` will start the according mod.

{% hint style="info" %}
To cumulate multiple mods, just add lines to the file with the paths to the other mods to launch.
{% endhint %}
