Just painstakingly dumped all of my save files from my Wii U. Cannot wait to try them all out in higher def.

This is one I've been waiting for! This is the last game I cared about on my Wii U working so it's nice to see it running.

Almost modded the HUD out, faint heart still leftover
Is there a WiiU shirt too?

Is the games global volumetric lighting working correctly? It appears to not be rendering atm from the screens being posted.

nope. rip.
found the texture though, should be a simple mod if custom textures become a thing
What can be done about it is giving the game a few more weeks/months to be emulated properly.

They're uh working on it. It's a new emulator with less than 2 years of public release.
Wait, so there's a Switch shirt in the WiiU version but no WiiU shirt? lol
And yeah, I was about to say, get that Cemu shirt ready for prime time
Nah. Just a case of bad wording from my part. I'm just a wee bit disappointed of the graphics of BOTW. I just wished that the game didn't look as "fuzzy" as it does, on such a new console.

For a 1050ti can I do 4k or is 1080p my limit?
It shouldn't be a problem if you have the CPU horsepower.

gpu makes very little difference with this emu, you need a decent cpu to run games well. I have a 3.2 in on pc, it runs most games ok to good. I have a 3.5 in another, it runs most games quite well.
That said botw runs shit for everyone right now
It makes 100% percent of the difference between being able to play at 1080 and 4k

tried BOTW on Cemu 1.7.3d and it was playing at 9fps most of the time. also took forever to load and had bad glitches. Link was sunk halfway into the ground. but overall as still images it was looking amazing! simply incredible what they can do these days =)

Someone posted a fix for the softlocking issue on Reddit. Well, sort of.

In that case my CPU is an i5-6400 @ 2.70ghz.
How are things looking?

It's now possible to edit your copy of BOTW and undub it.
https://www.reddit.com/r/cemu/comments/5z7x4n/botw_japanese_voice_patch_for_cemu_update/
You need to rip it to the files and directories to do this. All you're doing is copying the JP voice files over the EN ones.
To remove the blinking battery icon, switch it to Gamepad.

Yeah I just play with a Dualshock 4 so it's really annoying to use the keyboard if I need the menu, the blinking thing isn't that annoying. I'm sure there will be a fix for it soon, even if it means someone just finding that particular texture and making it transparent or something.
Probably just going to give Cemu a few more months until I actually play any full games on it.
That's weird, I still have a black screen on start on my end.
Is it supposed to work with 1.7.3d?

Stick with GC for now. Use Hypatia's HD texture pack and the AR code to change the aspect ratio to 16:9 (there's also a 21:9 code if you have an ultrawide monitor)
Damn. Good luck CEMU guys.

Yeah, the key is to launch it and leave your computer because it's 5+ minutes before the loading screen indicator even pops up. Once you hit the title screen is when it acts more normally, though seemingly randomly during cutscenes/gameplay performance spikes can pop up.
Unless your computer can't currently handle it, there's nothing really left aside from picotgraphs not working. The last of the performance issues were sorted in cemu 1.7.2. Here's a list of differences between game versions for reference

Personally, between the swift sail and everything else that makes the game move way faster, I can't go back to the gamecube version. Maybe less of an issue if you've only ever played the gamecube version.
Interesting find: the grass in BOTW actually renders but is affected by the physics issue and thus sinks through the ground. https://www.reddit.com/r/cemu/comme..._of_the_wild_on_cemu/?st=J095NAND&sh=d3e8099f
So fixing the Link sink problem should also fix grass!

It may or may not also be why nothing is actually suspended in water right now.
Whatever the issue is, it seems much more fixable than it would have been if it turned out entire portions of the game were simply not being emulated. Now we know emulation is occurring, it's just not correct. That's a vastly better scenario.

Yeah, I'm not sure my old PC will handle Wind Waker on CEMU, I'm not even dreaming about Breath of the Wild, but still gonna try it this summer when devs optimize it.

I love programming things like this.
"Hey it's working! Well, it's there but not how we thought it was. But it's working somewhat!"
That is really cool actually! Makes me wonder how many of the other physics issues are being caused by a similar issue, just moving through other objects or running into objects that are detached from their visual model.

That's really cool, I saw it at 19K earlier today.
When they get this right...I'll be tempted to get an Nvidia Shield tablet with some bluetooth controllers that let you put the tablet inbetween them.
I hope Nvidia get to work on polishing the tablet in the next 2 years for optimal user experience, and make their own controllers.

whoa, huge numbers
That's kinda funny. It'd sure be interesting to read about the technical development of the game. Speaking of grass, hopefully the LOD will be able to be increased.

With those Patreon numbers, I wonder if anyone is looking at the feasibility of a Switch emulator.
I think we might see something like drastic for ds emulation as it is essentially mobile hardware found on usual smartphones.

Wow. That's two guys, so 10K a month, 120K a year (before taxes) for a crowdfunded emulator. They're making out well, and look to be delivering.

That's a pretty poor choice of words. Tegra based phones are, to my knowledge, not really something that's made anymore. The Switch is actually probably the most popular non-car device to use Tegra in quite some time.

Wether or not it'll last for a year at that funding level remains to be seen, but yeah it's neat how Patreon has enabled crodwfunding the arts just like the Patrons of old did when they had money and wanted cool stuff.
But it's using an arm isa and if I'm not mistaken no custom instructions.
I don't see those numbers holding but good for them.

We currently have no idea what was customized about the chip in the Switch.
Also the graphics and OS are going to be more interesting for a console like the Switch anyway. You don't just emulate the CPU, you have to emulate everything.
