Having trouble loading Hi-Res textures.

The global user directory means your "user folder" is now in My Documents. That "Dolphin Emulator" folder is where textures should go. For example: C:\Users\[your username]\My Documents\Dolphin Emulator\Load\Textures\[GameID]\. The only way to make the old location work is to use portable.txt, which sucks.

I don't think it sucks at all, I think it makes total sense when dealing with frequent new builds.

Currently using developer build - Dolphin 5.0-7437

1. I inserted portable.txt and it created User folder in the Dolphin root folder, I moved my Textures to the User/Load/Textures/*.* . Things worked perfectly, Then they didn't.
2. I removed the portable.txt and things worked again so I moved my textures back, It now claims 24MB of textures loaded in 1 second and no visible texture changes in the game lol

That's how these things go when it's a new build.

I hope this information saves some mammals from some mental anguish.

I also would like to thank you for reminding me about portable.txt
