# zdbsp(1)

GL Nodes builder for DOOM engines

## NAME

zdbsp - GL Nodes builder for DOOM engines

## SYNOPSIS

**zdbsp** \[*options*\]  input.wad ... \[-o output.wad\]

**zdbsp** *@argfile.rsp*

## DESCRIPTION

*ZDBSP* is a nodes builder specially designed to be used with OpenGL-based DOOM game engines.  It adheres to the "GL-Friendly Nodes" specification, which means it adds some new special nodes to a WAD file that makes it very easy for an OpenGL DOOM engine to compute the polygons needed for drawing the levels.

## OPTIONS

- **--help**

  Displays a summary of all ZDBSP's command line options, as if you had run ZDBSP without any options.
