Absolutely. Made me appreciate the style quite a bit more than I was after being used to seeing it rendered at lower resolutions. Such a crisp image quality.

This emulator is really insane.
Cemu 1.7.3

Getting close to playable for plebs it seems.
It is, it's a option you can make on gameprofiles.

Thanks!
But I doubt the option handles video playback?
Pretty much locked 30fps on a 7700k 4.8ghz (4.8ghz with AVX also).
GTX 970 1550/3800Mhz, 16GB 3000Mhz CL14 RAM, 17k size shader cache.
Running 5K and with the tweak in the ini gameProfiles\00050000101c9400.ini
[CPU]
emulateSinglePrecision = true
[Graphics]
disableGPUFence = true
Gives me 60fps (double speed) in shrines though.

If you have a nvidia card then sure, otherwise enjoy the graphical glitches still.

Would you be happy to play the game in its entirety as it stands?
Yep, i dont see any issue now.
I could use Rivatuner to force 30fps max, the 60fps speedup seems like the last thing thats big.
It breaks vsync, so it will run at a higher speed if it goes above 30fps. To fix this use RivaTuner to set a 30fps limit on CEMU.

That's great, I'll try it out later, I cant find an definitive answer as to whether you still need cemu hook for the cutscenes though, some are saying it's built in, any idea?
As far as I understand it (I haven't tried any of this myself yet), the speedhack built into the hook is now included (and can be enabled by an ini setting) but the hook is still required for video playback.

The speed hack is now built into Cemu, not a fix for the video cutscenes.
Eventually you'll be wanting to save at a shrine, disable the hack, and reload into Cemu just so the game runs at normal speed.

Are the 1080p/4K graphics packs working on AMD cards? I get expected glitches, but also no resolution difference when activating the pack.
One more thing, the camera can sometimes freeze, so the player can move but the camera wont follow =/ Happens kind of frequently for me. Have to save and reload.

970 here. All I want is around 1080p with solid framerate.

Had this happen twice to me. Don't want to play the game as it stands, it still feels like I'm fighting my way through bugs. It's like debugging a beta version of the game. It detracts from the fun and alters the atmosphere.

Well, BOTW is working pretty much flawless for me now with CEMU 1.7.4 . At least on par or very close to Switch performance. Except running 4k graphics pack. almost constant 30fps with some minor drops here and there.
i'm using transferable shader cache
using the tips from the reddit megathread.
i'm using MSI Afterburner and Rivaturner to limit the FPS to 30.
BOOM.
I've put in over 80 hours into the Switch version and playing it on CEMU is now my preferred way to play. Unless I hit some huge bugs, but nothing so far except rare graphical glitches and i just got off the Grand Plateau.
my rig:
I7 7700k
GTX 980
16GB RAM
Win 10
no overclocking.
I'm blown away how near perfect this is, exactly 1 month after release. Even the most optimistic people were saying it would take 6 or less months to reach this point.

Any shader cache?
Amusingly, it seems like someone just now made a ppAA removal tweak while we were discussing this:
https://github.com/slashiee/cemu_graphic_packs/tree/master/Enhancement/BreathOfTheWild_AARemoval
How do we use this?

Nice. Gonna have to try this out.

Is it taking up silly amounts of ram?

Nice find, wonder if it works with SM3DW as well
Make a new folder in the graphicPacks folder, name it anything. Make a text file named b650afd18c646005_00000000000003c9_ps_source.txt and put its content from the link in it. Ideally you have another breath of the wild graphic pack already, so copy its rules.txt and paste it in the new folder. Inside it, change the "name =" line to another name, then activate it in Cemu like any other graphic pack.

honestly surprised it didnt hit 30k sooner. i have to say, tho, i was skeptical of what good so much money could do, but at this point, if you told me they were gauging liquid food into their stomachs while they work on this 18 hours a day id believe you
Runs fine on my system with 16gb ram, and it processes so quick now with multi threaded cache generation support.

Good news again, I have 16GB too.

Are we expecting 8 gigs of ram to be insufficient in the future for running this?
It basically tops out at 16k shaders, thrn after the game runs it drops to like 6gb. Eitehr way its just the processing that would take some extra time if you run out of ram since itll hit the pagefile.
kraspkibble
Permabanned.
I have 16GB ram and highest I saw it go was 7.7GB.
When it was compiling the first time it ate up all but 400 of my 16 gigs. The game itself runs fine but goes over 7gb.
No no theres not, I'm commenting on the first two photos how there being agressive LoD completely changes the look of places from a distance vs near.
And the 3rd shot is just vanilla game with a downsampling graphics pack showing how nice it looks.

I'm trying the 17k shaders, hopefully it'll be ok, 173 would hit 12GB ram on 6000 shaders.
You have a sandy bridge CPU at the end of the day, so nothing wrong there, in fact its quite good. Kabylake is going to be probably 50% faster at this point.

Well I have to say I'm pretty impressed by the new update with the ini adjustment, 25-30 fps 5K res and shadows, only using 4-4.5 GB of ram now with 17K shaders, from what I've seen it's easily playable now.
I'm guessing many just starting now won't run into this for a WHILE, but theres some real bad artifacting all throughout lava areas.
And I thought this was cool, a weapon broke - I switched to a new one and kept attacking, so the broken weapon effect kinda looks like some weird photoshop post processing lol.
And this just looks raw.
