As long as it's inside the WAD or PK3 you're using to house your contents G/ZDoom should recognize and read it upon launching.

A quick observation; Changing cheat codes won't do anything. GZDoom ignores these, they are the <blink> tags of dehacked.

Make sure the lump name is DEHACKED if it's inside a wad. If it's in a PK3, I think DEHACKED.txt works, and it should be in the root folder.

If its named DEHACKED in the WAD / PK3, it'll autoload. Else, just -deh (patchname).deh, with patchname being the name of the dehacked file itself.
