This is a guide for everyone who has never had any contact with emulating "new generation" consoles or has forgotten how to do certain things.
Please carefully read the explanation and the needed steps! Skipping something can lead to having to redo everything!

What is Cemu?
The Wii U runs "Café OS" and Cemu emulates the system. It creates the possibilty to run Wii U data formats on a PC, e.g. dumped games.
For more advanced information about Café OS, check out this link: http://wiiubrew.org/wiki/Cafe_OS
System Requirements
■ OS | ◊ CPU | ● RAM | ○ VRAM | ♦ GPU | □ Graphic API |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
■ Windows 7 (x64) or above, Windows 10 recommended. | ◊ Recommend at least 4 core 4 thread CPUs, but 2/Dual Core CPUs will work for lighter titles. Cemu makes use of up to 5 cores. | ● Minimum of 4GB for light titles, 8GB for most titles, at least 16GB or more for compatibility with every title. | ○ OpenGL - Preferably at least 2 to 6GB. | ♦ NVIDIA GPU: Runs as expected on most recent driver. | □ OpenGL 4.1 (4.6 is used if available) |
■ Cemu cannot run on 32bit systems. | ◊ The higher your CPU benchmarks for Single Thread speeds/performance, the better it will perform on Cemu. | ● For AMD Ryzen CPUs, having great RAM quality will boost your CPU's performance. | ○ Vulkan - Preferably at least 4 to 6GB. Has instability issues with 2GB or less. | ♦ AMD GPU: Runs as expected on most recent driver | □ Vulkan 1.0 (1.2 will be used when possible) |
■ Cemu can run on Linux with Wine. A native Linux build is planned in the distant future. | ◊ The higher you can overclock your CPU and manage its temperature, the better it will perform on Cemu. | ● The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is considered a heavy title, 16GB recommended. | ○ If you do not have a viable amount of VRAM you will be much more likely to encounter crashes or much worse performance overall. | ♦ Intel GPU: Not officially supported. Heavy visual glitches, runs best on Vulkan. | □ There are no current plans for other Graphic APIs |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
StartingUpdating Games and Installing DLCsTo use your Update or DLC for a game, you must install it via Cemu's UI. Once you open Cemu, go to `File -> Install Update or DLC` and then navigate to the Update/DLC folder. Open the Meta folder and select the Meta.xml file. Using Dumped GamesIf you store all of your games in their own folders, you can keep all of the folders / games in a centralized Game Folder. Point Cemu to this folder, and as long as the games are WUD/WUX with keys in keys.txt or RPX with their meta.xml in their Meta folder, they will show up in Cemu's UI. If you do not have a meta folder / file for your RPX game, we highly suggest you use FTPiiU Everywhere to get the data so you can have the game show up; otherwise you may use a method below: Compatible Files by File Extension
