This patching method only is for [spice2x supported games](https://github.com/spice2x/spice2x.github.io/wiki/List-of-supported-games).
Please make sure you're using the latest release for [spice2x](https://spice2x.github.io/).

**It is highly recommended to use an unpatched DLL as your base!**
If you've already patched your game through other methods *([web patching](/extras/patchweb) or [hex editing](/extras/hexguide))*,
**Please replace your game's DLL with the original**.

#### Auto apply / Overwrite game files
!!! tip "Auto apply (recommended)"
After picking your patches, it is **strongly recommended** to tick the `Auto apply patches on game start` box.
Doing so will keep your game files intact until you start it, at which point your selected patches will apply.
Upon closing the game your game's files will be restored.
!!! warning "Overwrite game files"
You also have the option to `Overwrite game files`, which will **permanently modify your game files**.
This is **NOT** recommended unless you have a good reason to do so.
