It overrides the old file and displays the HD texture in real-time. Step-by-Step Installation Guide
The very architecture of the PS1 makes texture replacement a challenge. The console's GPU uses small 256x256 "texture pages" and palettes, a very different system from modern PCs. DuckStation's texture replacement system is a modern hack that works by capturing textures as they are loaded into the emulated VRAM and swapping them out for your HD versions on the fly. This is a complex process, and not all texture packs from the PC version can be used directly. However, the community is actively working on converting and creating packs specifically for DuckStation and Beetle PSX HW.

The term “sexual orientation” is loosely defined as a person’s pattern of romantic or sexual attraction to people of the opposite sex or gender, the same sex or gender, or more than one sex or gender. Laws that explicitly mention sexual orientation primarily protect or harm lesbian, gay, and bisexual people. That said, transgender people who are lesbian, gay or bisexual can be affected by laws that explicitly mention sexual orientation.
“Gender identity” is a person’s deeply-felt inner sense of being male, female, or something else or in-between. “Gender expression” refers to a person’s characteristics and behaviors such as appearance, dress, mannerisms and speech patterns that can be described as masculine, feminine, or something else. Gender identity and expression are independent of sexual orientation, and transgender people may identify as heterosexual, lesbian, gay or bisexual. Laws that explicitly mention “gender identity” or “gender identity and expression” primarily protect or harm transgender people. These laws also can apply to people who are not transgender, but whose sense of gender or manner of dress does not adhere to gender stereotypes.
