'''[[wikipedia:Cemu|Cemu]]''' is a closed-source [[Wii U emulators|Wii U emulator]] for Windows. It is known to be the very first Wii U emulator ever that can boot games. A compatibility list can be found [http://compat.cemu.info/ here] or [http://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19WV2YQvS2PkiHnQTlYP7cE2eHOPl06Rx4tCvfud_Hpw/edit?pref=2&pli=1#gid=0 here].
Before updates are publicly released, they're accessible to backers over at [https://www.patreon.com/cemu their Patreon].
==System requirements==
You will also need enough storage for the [[Wii U emulators|Wii U]] games. Running Cemu on WINE [[Wine]] has been reported to work just as well as Windows.
===Minimum===
* Windows 7 (64-bit)
* Graphics Card: Supports at least OpenGL 4.01
* Memory: 4 GB
===Recommended===
* Windows 10 (64-bit)
* Graphics Card: Supports OpenGL 4.0 or newer 6 (avoid integrated graphics)* Memory: 6 8 GB or more
==Game Formats and Files Needed==
===Digital Copies===
Cemu supports either physical games dumps in WUD, or compressed WUX format, as well as game dumps converted to the Loadiine format. Loadiine games come as multiple directories with game files and an a .rpx file.
Nintendo's servers are poorly secured due to a huge oversight when designing Wii U/3DS software protection. As such, with tickets proving you bought the game (but which you can get through less legit ways), there are downloader utilities like NUSGrabber, FunKiiU, UWizard, or jnus among others, and decryption tools like UWizard and CDecrypt, to obtain a functional copy. The process of how to exactly acquire those files is detailed elsewhere on this wiki.
Load the .rpx file from [Your gamelocation]/code/[yourgame].rpx with cemuCemu.
===Updates and DLC===
Using this is completely optional.
Download [http://sshnuke.net/cemuhook/ the latest version] compatible with your Cemu version, unpack it to the same directory as cemu.exe and right-click on dbghelp.dll, check Proprieties, Digital Signatures tab, select a signature and press Details. This should make it no longer crash at start-up. Make sure you also have the latest GPU driver installed, as well as both x86 and x64 versions of the [httphttps://wwwaka.microsoft.comms/vs/en-US15/downloadrelease/detailsvc_redist.x64.aspx?id=53840 exe Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 2017 X64 Redistributable].
Whenever you boot Cemu now, this cemuhook tool is enabled by default and offers various additions for better motion control emulation or some graphical hacks that greatly enhance Zelda BOTW in particular. Accept to download the missing shared fonts as well as to make the text in some games (Super Mario Maker among others) display correctly.
