You do realize you didn't actually ask any questions someone can help with, right?

Which game, and what part of the manual isn't clear enough so that we can fix it?

And what part of what the Manual says isn't clear on that, exactly?

Have you tried what it says, and it's not working? If so, what error message to you receive?

It says,
Create a directory called /.rockbox/doom/ on your player (i.e. F:\.rockbox\doom\ for Windows users - where F: is the drive letter for your DAP) and save the following file in that directory

but folders cannot contain "/"
thats what im having trouble with

That means "create a folder called 'doom' in the .rockbox folder"

It's a very standard notation for folder structures, and is considered very basic computer knowledge, especially for people who'd be installing an alternative firmware.

The "extras" page should have a .zip for Doom that has the folder structure already set up.

I'm not freaking out. That's emphasis. The manual is correct. If you find it confusing, please let us know how we can improve it.

In the "Plugins" section, under "Doom"... See the "Manual" link on the left side of the screen...

And you don't 'get' other plugins. All the official ones are included.
