Okay what if I made a mod that could be standalone and not require any IWADs to play.

Would I be able to:
1) Modify the gzdoom source (it's based off that) to support only that mod without breaking licenses (and how, by crediting the authors and making the source code public?)
2) Distribute it commercially (I don't intend to, but it's a question somebody would eventually ask)

That's it. Thanks in advance for the answer.

It's also worth noting that you could sell the mod if you used a port under the GPL, which is pretty much everything but zdoom and derived ports. Then you would be required to release the source modifications to the engine in question, though.

Modifying the source for this reason is discouraged. First I should mention that modifying the zdoom.pk3 file should be sufficient to add a new iwad (though -iwad will always work). Once you're done with the mod though, we usually will accept feature suggestions to have the iwad listed by (G)ZDoom.

Why can't you merge them all in one?

But what if someone with programming skills makes a fork from your commercially distributed program source code, and gives it away for free?

Here's the log:

How would I fix that? I don't understand these script errors

EDIT: As I said, the data is scattered among various wads and they are defined in iwadinfo.
