## PS2 emulator
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I use [PCSX2](https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2).
|
|
|
|
Currently it supports macOS on nightly builds, but it's good enough.

### [Resident Evil 4](https://wiki.pcsx2.net/Resident_Evil_4)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can download it [here](https://cdromance.com/ps2-iso/resident-evil-4-usa/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I recommend to use [HD textures](https://gbatemp.net/threads/resident-evil-4-hd-textures-update-2.615869/), it's better for your eyes.
|
|
|
|
[Direct download link](https://www.mediafire.com/file/eyspelayfqtfz7a/R.4.hd.textures.xXthe.RockoXx.rar/file) if forum dies.
|
|
|
|
Please give thanks to [xXtheRockoXx](https://ko-fi.com/xxtherockoxx) for his work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After download HD textures, please extract then copy to PCSX2 texture folder.
|
|
|
|
Remember to rename it to serial name (SLUS-21134, ...), because different region has different serial name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings below are for Resident Evil 4 only.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
