Please note that some games may have multiple PPU executable hashes, and it is up to you to figure out the correct hash to be copied.
Find the existing PPU hash in the patch and replace the same with the PPU hash you obtained in Step 4. Ensure that you also copy over any anchors that the patch relies on. Find the existing patch that you wish to modify and copy it to imported_patch.yml. Open patch.yml with any text editor (e.g: VSCode, Sublime, Notepad++). Search for the string PPU executable hash. Open RPCS3.log (or just RPCS3 with the Notepad icon). Boot the game for a minute and then close the emulator. To identify the executable hash, follow the instructions mentioned here: Please note that you will also have to edit the Title ID and game version information for the modified patch to be applied by the emulator. Do not try to edit any of the patches unless you know what you are doing. This section is meant for adept users who wish to apply a patch to a different game version. How to identify the PPU/SPU executable hash Navigate to the Patch Manager as mentioned before and tick the checkbox corresponding to the patch you wish to apply. Windows: \patches\ Linux: ~/.config/rpcs3/patches/ MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/rpcs3/patches/ (If you're unable to locate this directory then copy/paste the path shown here into Spotlight and hit Enter.) On Windows, select All files (*.*) as the file type when saving.
Do NOT change the capitalization or use any other name, RPCS3 will not be able to apply the patches. Click Save and name the file imported_patch.yml.
Ensure that the formatting for these patches are perfect, as the emulator will ignore the patch if it detects any formatting deficiencies.
Paste your custom patch from the Canary page or any other source. Add the text Version: 1.2 as the first line. Open your preferred text editor (e.g: VSCode, Sublime, Notepad++). These patches can be added to RPCS3 in the following manner:
There are many patches that aren't shipped with the automatic download facility due to them being canary patches, privately-shared patches, or otherwise missing from the Wiki. You may want to tick the check box Only show owned games to make navigation simpler.
Navigate to the patch you wish to enable and tick the checkbox corresponding to the patch. Click the Download latest patches button and the emulator will automatically fetch the latest version of available patches. Select Manage > Game Patches to access the Patch Manager. The simplest way to enable patches in RPCS3 is as follows: 3 How to identify the PPU/SPU executable hash.
