Possible to change location of textures folder?

[SoMuchLasagna]

Silly question and if the answer is no, I understand. Short version is, I keep my OS (by itself) on a 250GB SSD. That SSD never comes close to capacity, even with regular Windows updates.

I recently found out about texture packs and went HAM, so now I have under 100GB remaining on my C:\.

Is there a way to change the location of all of those folders so I can put them on one of my big HDD (I have a few 3 and 4TB for games) and not worry about the space?


Thanks.

I'm using dolphin-emu the last days, so I don't really know much about it, but as happens on most apps probably they should be in a specific folder. But you could use symlink to achive what you want.

You could change where Dolphin keeps the global repository. https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/controlling-global-user-directory/

There might also be a way to dynamically link where you keep the texture packs....

Worked like a charm! Downloaded the program, moved the textures to my Games drive, and while it takes longer to load all the textures (upwards of 70 seconds), it works!

Thank you!
