Update 1.5.0 v208 & DLC v80 3.0 works on The_Legend_of_Zelda_Breath_of_the_Wild_USA_WiiU-SUXXORS release.
Zelda BOTW Pack w/ 1.5 Update and DLC
Many thanks to Neodymium on the discord for making this possible!
Zelda BOTW now runs at 60 FPS on more machines thanks to the latest cemu updates. (included in this pack)
Im back with another pack after a bit of a hiatus. This time the pack is done correctly, and you will need to do some work yourself to get it up and running. Check the readme file to start!
Pulled from the read me file;
This read me file is based off of my set up with CEMU 1.12, and is purely to get the game able to launch and run, your results may vary during play.
My Specs:
Ryzen 7 1700 @4.1 GHZ
16 GB DDR4
GTX 980ti EVGA Classified
Cemu and Cemu Games are on a Sata SSD
Instructions:
1.) Extract 'Zelda BOTW Files.'
2.) Extract the base game, and place it wherever you want/have your CEMU game library at.
3.) Extract, and open the included Cemu 1.12 (or if you have CEMU 1.12 already, feel free to use that.)
4.a) If you already have your game path settings loaded, right click the main CEMU screen and click 'refresh.'
4.b) If you do not have game paths set up yet, Click the 'options' drop down menu, and click 'configure game paths.' A window will open, double click the text, and it will have you pick your game library in a new window.
5.) Extract the file 'The Legend of Zelda BotW Update 1 5 0 v208 USA' found in the 'Zelda BOTW Files' folder.
6.) Go back to CEMU, click 'File' in the top left, then click 'install game update or dlc.' A window will open, direct it to the 'The Legend of Zelda BotW Update 1 5 0 v208 USA' and continue to the 'meta' folder, then click, and load 'meta.xml.' CEMU will update the base game.
7.) Once that is complete, you will want to Extract 'BOTW DLC v80 (3 0) USA 9400 unpacked.' Now go back to CEMU and repeat; 'install update and DLC, but this time direct CEMU to the meta.xml inside of the DLC folder.
8.) Open GFX packs under 'options' and make sure BOTW LZWX workaround is enabled!
Some CEMU/CemuHook Settings that help my frames
Open cemu after you installed cemu hook
Debug > MM Timer Accuracy > 1ms
Custom Timer > QPC > 1x Speed
CPU > CPU Mode > Triple Core Recompiler (this setting requires at least 6 cores)
Options > Upscale Filter > Bilinear
Options > Experiemental > Full Sync at G2XDrawDone()
Options > Experiemental > Use Seperable Shaders
Options > Experiemental > UNCHECK Use RTDSC
Graphics packs?
The latest ones for this specific update are included, just drag the whole folder to your main CEMU folder.
What about CEMUHook?
Same thing, It is included, just extract it, and then drag and drop the files inside the folder into your main CEMU folder, DO NOT drag just the 'cemuhook' folder, it will not work.
Shader Cache?
I will be including a shader cache for Nvidia Cards and AMD as well. The Nvidia one is thanks to Neodymium, you can find him on the CEMU piracy Discord; https://discord.gg/qYj7Dp
I believe this shader cache will also work for AMD users but I do not have an AMD card to test it with, please comment if it does not work.
How about some good CPU settings?
If you have a dual-core/4 thread, or quad-core cpu, in CEMU, go to the 'CPU' drop down; Mode > Dual-core Recompiler.
If you are on a 6 core or 8 core cpu or higher, you can set this setting to triple core recompiler. This settings also helps Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 users get 60FPS+ on many ocassions.
What about graphics pack settings?
4k Graphics pack NVIDIA Requirements: 980ti, 1070, 1070 ti, 1080, 1080ti, ect. The GTX 1060 6GB variant can run this game stable at 4k with the included 30FPS Lock mod(s).
4k Pack on AMD: R9 Nano, R9 Fury, R9 Fury X, RX 480, RX 580, may require 30FPS or 45FPS Lock mod.
If you have a GTX 960, 970, 1050 ti, 1060 3GB, or AMD Equivalents, I recommend you play with the 1080p GFX pack enabled, with 'regular resolutions shadows' also enabled.
Also make sure to enable 'FPS++.' Fence Skip is also included inside this GFX pack mod so you do not need to enable it via CEMU Hook.
AMD users; In the graphics packs there are 2 mods at the top of the list that are specifically for you guys, I recommend you use them.
My game is crashing when I use runes!
In CEMU; Options>Experimental>Full Sync at GX2DrawDone()
