Specific System Information
Custom Textures
It is possible to launch Custom Texture packs with the Citra standalone Emulator and Lime3DS.
The texture pack needs to be placed in the \emulators\<emulator>\User\Load\Textures\<gameID> folder, example for Super Mario 3D Land:
When using the libretro core, textures must be placed in:
\saves\3ds\citra\Load\Textures\<gameID>
The name of the custom texture folder can be found by right-clicking on the game in the emulator and selecting "Open Custom Texture Location".
Once the custom texture pack is correctly named and placed, activate the CUSTOM TEXTURES setting.
