The Update installation method has been reworked since 1.11.0 simplifying the installation method a lot. From 1.7.3 onwards, proper support for DLC and updates was included in Cemu. DLC wouldn't work at all through this method, though with some specific games there were workarounds and some could play DLC tracks in Mario Kart 8 through swapping of specific files. Prior to 1.7.3, only updates were supported though pasting update files on the main game's folders (keeping in mind the main game is in Loadiine format) and overwriting any files.

The process of how to exactly acquire those files is detailed elsewhere on this wiki.

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.

Dump your discs using Wudump.Ĭemu supports either physical games dumps in WUD, or compressed WUX format, as well as game dumps converted to the Loadiine format. Your ISO must be either uncompressed, compressed using WUD format, or in Loadiine format (only possible for versions 1.4.0 onward) to boot in Cemu. Note that for games using the Loadiine format, you won't need a Game Key at all, but those will need Cemu versions from 1.4.0 onward. Sharing these keys isn't exactly safe legally, but ROM sites at least share the Game ones. Your file must have many lines like this, one for the Wii U Common Key (D7B00402659BA2ABD2CB0DB27FA2B656), and one line for the Game Key of each game. It has a sample line with a bogus key and a comment, which you may as well delete. You'll first need to fill in the 'keys.txt' file in Cemu's directory. Game formats and needed files Physical dumps
