Modern consoles and their games make heavy use of precompiled shaders specific to their GPUs, and these shaders can't be run natively on PC hardware , so they need to be translated, or recompiled. The simplest way to do this is to recompile them at runtime, but that's slow and can cause stuttering every time a new shader is loaded in the game. A mitigation to this stuttering is to compile the shaders asynchronously to the emulator, but this has its own drawback in that in the time it takes to compile the shader , the effect in-game that relies on it wont won't be shown. Another approach is to cache the system's raw shader pipeline of the system and then use that to compile the shaders before the game even starts. The only drawback here is that someone has to play through the game once to 'build' a cache that can be used by others.

When an emulator updates the way it handles shaders they , it may break compatibility with previous shader caches, ; for this reason , the shader version is listed below.

Note: Please compress your shader caches with 7zip 7-Zip or Winrar WinRAR before uploading them.

Current The urrent shader version is '''150''', but Cemu is backwardsbackward-compatible from version '''149''' (Cemu version 1.7.0, 2017/05/16)Cemu 1.25.0+ is not backwards backward-compatible with any prior transferable cache.

|Incomplete, this is meant for Vulkan users (the cache above will still work with Vulkan) so that they don't have to build pipelines.<br>Don't try to combine the pipelines with another cache , as they are not compatibleincompatible.

|Almost perfect, JPN ver version of BOTW ''Breath of the Wild'' for the cemu Cemu 1.25, other region versions can use the opengl OpenGL shaders, change it's its name, for example, change 9300 to 9500. <br>The vulkan Vulkan pipelines will increase with your hardware driver update. submitted by 百万战神.
