AN UNPACKED DUMP OF BOTW FOR WII U WILL NOT BE PROVIDED

This guide will require an unpacked dump of BOTW and .NET Framework 6.0

Cemu Configuration

  1. Create a folder somewhere you'd like to install Cemu. I recommend somewhere with extra space.

  2. Download Cemu and unzip it into the prior folder.

  3. Open Cemu, and make sure to download the community graphics packs. You may say no to viewing the downloaded packs.

Cemu Graphics Packs Configuration

Multiplayer Mod Setup

  1. Download BOTWM_Autoupdater.exe

    DO NOT OPEN IT, IT WILL DELETE EVERYTHING IN THE DIRECTORY

  2. Move BOTWM_Autoupdater.exe to an empty directory wherever you would like to launch Multiplayer.

  3. ASSUMING YOU HAVE MOVED THE EXE Run BOTWM_Autoupdater.exe to install some necessary files.

BCML Setup

  1. Feel free to set up BCML using their linked github, or you may just use the installer provided here

  2. After using either method above, open BCML and map the Cemu and game folders. (hint: use the tooltips!) Click save to continue.

  3. Click the plus button, then Browse, then navigate to where you ran the autoupdater, and navigate to the BNPs subdirectory.

  4. Install BreathoftheWildMultiplayer.bnp first, then go ahead and install BOTW Multiplayer-Classic.bnp. Your BCML should now look like this. image

  5. Click the re-merge button at the very bottom of BCML. image

Playing Multiplayer

  • Everything should now be ready to go! Navigate to where you ran BOTWM_Autoupdater.exe and open Breath of the Wild Multiplayer.exe!

  • Set your name, then click Add Server. Add the server you'd like to connect to and click Connect.
