​

Everyone's favorite Wii U emulator is back, with a brand new update: version 1.8.0b. Many improvements have been made, and you can see the changelog below. General consensus seems to say that this build fixes lots of crashing errors, although some also mention worse performance, in terms of framerate. You can check it out yourself by trying the latest version of the emulator in the source link.

New in 1.8.0b:

• general: Fixed a bug in calculation of fullscreen window size
• GX2: Fixed crash caused by out-of-bounds vertex attribute locations

New in 1.8.0:

• general: Added memory scanner (search and filter for values)
• general: If Cemu is maximized to fullscreen, it will remain on the same monitor rather than defaulting to the primary monitor
• RPL: Optimized loading of RPLs
• GX2: Cemu now uses separable shaders. Vertex, geometry and pixel shaders are split into separate and independent programs rather than bundling them into sets. This change breaks compatibility with pre-1.8.0 shader caches and graphic packs (if they contain shaders)
• GX2: Added support for using the same texture multiple times with different sampler parameters during a single drawcall
• GX2: Graphic pack texture rules will automatically scale gl_FragCoord
• GX2: Implemented shader instructions RECIPSQRT_FF and RECIP_FF
• GX2: GPU7 shader decompiler will output slightly more optimized GLSL code
• GX2: Better detection for invalidation of data in Streamout cache
• GX2: Optimized frequently used GX2 API
• GX2: Optimized texture decoding
• GX2: Added command line option '-nsight' to allow debugging via NVIDIA Nsight

I was talking about for graphics card. Not a console.

Is that best on the market? First i heard of this one.

actually titan are professional gpu
GTX are specifically for game from what I understood
The best GTX is 1080ti

you should ask in the emulation section, not in the news section

Professional gpu? Kinda like professional windows os over home version? So is for business suitors and developers, not consumer market. I mean i haven't tried the emulator yet, but i have Nvidia GTX 1050TI, so 1080P at 60FPS is all i care about. Not really into the 4K stuff yet.

I need a game to try it on, but i don't have enough storage yet, does anyone know a small file size game? I don't think any of my disc based games are under 10GB to rip, plus it take long on the wii u to sd card.

I guess RPCSX3 is PS3 emulator, but what is xenia? XBox360?

You answer correct. An Xenia is an Xbox 360 emulator but this is an off topic.

It came out pretty fast after the 1080 Ti, so very few people know about it.
1080 Ti hogging all that fame.

Seem kinda not a good thing then, usually if is so fast to release, is probably not gonna be well prepared.

 

[YugiSenpai]

What about gtx 1060?

It will definitely work if CemU supports it.

Here is what Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild runs like on CEMU 1.8.0b.

FX 8320 // 390 (AMD 17.5.2) // 16GB 2133

There is only a slight performance difference.

 

[BvanBart]

All I need is for it to support the gamepad and I wouldn't need my wiiu anymore.

Is this still not possible?

Emulation is done mostly on the CPU side, if you want good FPS get a good CPU, the GPU don't help with FPS as much as the CPU.

Nope. Titans are, and have always been for gaming. Pros take Nvidia Quadro & Co. which are muuuuch more powerful than the GeForce series in brute power, but for different uses. Nvixdia couldn't continue to sell the Nvidia Titan X Pascal (2016) for $1,400 while less powerful than the $700 1080Ti, so they updated it into the Titan Xp (2017) which is roughly 15% more powerful than the 1080Ti, with the entire board used, and costs $1,200.
But's that's offtopic.

Nice to see that the WiiU won't be needed for much longer to play the few good games it has. Still, for those not wanting to pay too much then the WiiU might be the choice anyway.

Anyone else having issues running this with a 7700K? Framerate is around 10% lower in BOTW.

What's your graphics card?

EVGA GTX 1070, I'll get the model number in a moment.
