Primehack is based on Dolphin so the method is the same.

The ~/retrodeck/mods/dolphin/ & ~/retrodeck/mods/primehack/ that represents the /load/GraphicMods folder.

Note:
Some texture packs could made for a specific version or region of a game. Make sure you have the right game and textures for it.

Note:
GAME_ID is different for every game.

  • Open up Dolphin or Primehack inside RetroDECK Configurator by pressing Open Emulator - Dolphin or Primehack.
  • Press Options -> Graphic Settings

Enable Graphics Mods and set it to On.

How do I add mods?

Requirements: Mod files

NOTE: On the Steam Deck this could be easier to do in Desktop Mode.

Directly into the mods folder

  1. Extract any mod files from compressed .zip or any other format into folders.

  2. Go into mods folders, they contain folders that are all named by GAME_ID.
    Dolphin:~/retrodeck/mods/dolphin/
    Primehack:~/retrodeck/mods/primehack/.

  3. Move the mods into the right folder:
    Dolphin: ~/retrodeck/mods/dolphin/<GAME_ID>
    Primehack: ~/retrodeck/mods/primehack/<GAME_ID>
