So, when the manual says

For the game to run you need .wad game files located in /.rockbox/doom/ on your player. Create the directory and save the following files there:

rockdoom.wad.
    The Rockbox .wad, based on prboom.wad from prboom-2.2.6
Your wad files.
    Copy all Doom wads you wish to play into that directory.

you somehow got the impression that you ONLY need rockdoom.wad, despite it clearly saying that you also need your wad files, those being the wads you wish to play?

well i have tryed throwing the doom.rock file that is already on theer into the folder and this does not help ither

[Llorean]

Doom.rock isn't a .wad file, now is it?

Do you own a copy of Doom, Doom 2, Ultimate Doom, or Final Doom?
You need a .wad file from one of these, or the one from the open source Freedoom project (google it).

Rockdoom is an "engine". It needs data files, the actual 'game' to play.

seeing as how there were no links to them i thought they were not needed, now to the 2nd part of my question were can i get other games

[Llorean]

So, despite it saying that you need "wad files", clearly plural, and clear use of the word need, you assumed that it was lying to you because we didn't link to files that you're expected to own yourself, or need to purchase?

As for other games, Rockbox comes with all officially supported plugins.

[darr3n]

are there any unifficial ones?

Llorean = patience of a saint!

I'd have given up by now

Hey,

for easy installing of the freedoom wads, you can now also try to use rbutil. It has a button for installing those files :-)
