Where things go
Texture packs
| OS | Path |
|---|---|
| Windows | Documents\ |
| Linux | ~/ |
| macOS | ~/ |
Put the pack's files in a folder named after the game's serial, inside the replacements subfolder. PCSX2 dumps textures to the dumps subfolder beside it. Turn on texture replacement in the graphics settings. A portable install keeps the textures folder beside the PCSX2 executable.

Patches
| OS | Path |
|---|---|
| Windows | Documents\ |
| Linux | ~/ |
| macOS | ~/ |
PCSX2 ships its patch database inside the emulator (patches.zip), so a built-in patch needs no file: turn it on from the Patches page of the game's properties window. A patch you add yourself goes in the patches folder as SERIAL_CRC.pnach.

Cheats
| OS | Path |
|---|---|
| Windows | Documents\ |
| Linux | ~/ |
| macOS | ~/ |
Cheat files use the same pnach format and go in the cheats folder. They are turned on from the Cheats page of the game's properties window.
