{{Outdated}}'''[[wikipedia:Cemu|Cemu]]''' is a closednow open-source [[Wii U emulators|Wii U emulator]] for Windows. Its development was started circa 2015 and it's known to be for being the very first Wii U emulator ever that can to successfully boot gamesa game.
You will also need enough storage for the [[Wii U emulators|Wii U]] games. Running Cemu on [[Wine]] has been reported to work just as well as Windows.===Minimum===* Windows 7 (64-bitx64)or above* Graphics Card: Supports at least OpenGL 4.5 or Vulkan 1.1* MemoryRAM: 4 GBminimum, 8 GB or more recommended===Recommended===* Windows 10 (64-bit)'''NVIDIA GPU:''' Runs as expected on most recent driver.<br>* Graphics Card'''AMD GPU: Supports ''' Runs as expected on most recent driver.

===Cemuhook===
Using this is completely optional but highly recommended. Without Cemuhook, some games won't have texts, have laggy cutscenes and display numerous other bugs.
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 [https://aka.ms/vs/15/release/vc_redist.x64.exe Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 X64 Redistributable].
After the first boot of Cemu with cemuhook installed, accept to download the missing shared fonts to make the text in some games (Super Mario Maker among others) display correctly.
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.
Various way to take advantages of the cemuhook motion control emulation are listed [http://compat.cemu.info/wiki/Motion_Sensing#Full-motion_Solutions here].
Enabling "GX2SetGPUFenceSkip (HACK)" enhances graphical emulation in BOTW in particular. A pre-installed Graphical Pack that comes with recent versions of Cemuhook, "LWZX Crash Workaround", as well as the "GX2DrawDone()" option under Experimental, should help with some general crashes specific to BOTW.
As of version 1.18.0, cemuhook is no longer considered required to run the emulator, as all major functions previously provided by cemuhook have been implemented into the emulator itself.
