PATH is a section in the item definition file in GTA III and Vice City. It is used to define paths for traffic. Path nodes in GTA III are attached to existing objects in a similar manner to 2DFX. In Vice City, the format of this section is similar to its IPL counterpart but entries will crash the game because of an imposed limit. Use a limit adjuster like VC Limit Adjuster and increase the number of treadables to use this section.
