Tutorial:How to update a game

We assume that you already know how to get the game updates in decrypted/extracted format. However, should you need any assistance you can easily find some guides on google.

Note that this updating process is not the same when installing DLC. If you do otherwise, you might override and corrupt your files.

Since version 1.7.3, Cemu will load patched game files automatically from mlc01/usr/title/<titleId_upper8Digits>/<titleId_lower8Digits>/, all you have to do is to place the updated game files in this folder.

How to find the mlc01/usr/title/../../ folder

1. Start the Cemu emulator and enable Logging. Debug -> Logging -> enable Logging
2. Start your game in the emulator and close the emulator
3. Search in the log.txt in the Cemu installation folder the line the line
   Mounting local storage (updates): .\mlc01\usr\title\00050000\101C9XXX\
4. Go to your Cemu installation folder and open the folder mlc01/usr/title/ and create there the two folder when they don't exist.
5. In the new created folders you can put your update data

Example US version of MK8

For example, patching the US version of MK8 you should end up with a folder structure that looks like this:

<cemuFolder>\mlc01\usr\title\00050000\1010EC00\content\
<cemuFolder>\mlc01\usr\title\00050000\1010EC00\code\
<cemuFolder>\mlc01\usr\title\00050000\1010EC00\meta\
