# Introduction
|
|
Hey, im Yukii and I'm writing you a guide on how to install yuzu without having a Switch, since I discovered this is literally a pain in the ass.
|
|
I try to make it as easy as possible, but be sure to check this out if you need new keys, since I try to keep this always up-to-date! <3
|
|
|
|
# Guide
|
|
|
|
# Setup
|
|
First you will need [yuzu](https://pineappleea.github.io/).
|
|
Download it.
|
|
Open it in WinRar, 7ZIP idk and then move the contents in a folder and open the yuzu.exe.
|
|
|
|
yuzu will open and show this screen
|
|
|
|
on there click Emulation -> Configure -> System -> Profile
|
|
Then press on Add and make a new profile, then close yuzu
|
|
|
|
# Files
|
|
Inside of yuzu click File -> Open yuzu folder.
|
|
This will open the yuzu configuration folder inside of explorer.
|
|
|
|
Create a folder called "keys" and copy the key you got from [here](https://github.com/emuworld/aio/blob/master/prod.keys) and paste it in the folder.
|
|
|
|
# Settings
|
|
For settings open yuzu up Emulation -> Configure -> Graphics, Select OpenGL and set it to Vulkan or OpenGL. (Vulkan seems to be a bit bad atm)
|
|
Then go to Controls and press Single Player yadiyadiyada and set it to something like this
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then Press Configure and set Player 1 to Pro Controller if you have a controller/keyboard and to Joycons if Joycons.
|
|
Press Configure and press the excat buttons on your controller (it's easier for Xbox but for you PS4 and keyboard users I have a graphic for yo found [here](https://compass-ssl.xboxlive.com/assets/c7/a1/c7a12fbe-af04-4a90-92f2-18338219c2aa.png?n=one-controller-front-l.png))
|
|
After you're done press Okay and continue to the next step.
|
|
|
|
# Games
|
|
Download any ROM you want from any ROM Website you like, or if your arent a Pirate from your Switch.
|
|
A Tutorial for that is below in
|
|
I recommend [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1SsD4PxVISvyeAkM07wD9rpHFs24K8Bi3?usp=drive_open), but any ROM Site does it.
|
|
After you got your File (can be .xci or .nsp) create a folder somewhere on your PC and in that folder create another folder for your game.
|
|
After that double-click into yuzu and select the folder you put your game folder in.
|
|
|
|
Now the game should be in the list. Next do what I do in the gif below
|
|
|
|
|
|
# NoPiracy
|
|
|
|
* So here goes the way to get Games without Piracy!
|
|
* of Something is titled with an ```NP``` it means its NoPiracy!
|
|
|
|
# NPGames
|
|
|
|
I found a very good guide that can be found [here](https://wiki.no-intro.org/index.php?title=Nintendo_Switch_Dumping_Guide)
|
|
Sorry just have no Homebrewed Switch to try it atm.
|
|
When you got the XCI, just do the same as in the Gif Above
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Aditional
|
|
|
|
# Compatibility
|
|
|
|
For a Compatibility List of Games working look [here](https://yuzu-emu.org/game/)
|
|
|
|
# GameUpdates
|
|
|
|
Download the update of your game or DLCs, usually as a .nsp.
|
|
Put it in your folder of the game, then open yuzu. Do exactly as in there
|
|
|
|
For me it was already installed but it should then show under addons that you have it installed
|
|
|
|

|

|
# BCATS
|
|
|
|
Whats a BCAT?
|
|
A BCAT is the way of Nintendo sending you Ingame Gifts.
|
|
On an Emulator this, obv, doesnt works as on a Switch, so Yuzu has its own way of giving you these.
|
|
To Enable this go in the menu and choose Boxcat. 
|
|
<p> A list of all the stuff you can get can be found [here](https://yuzu-emu.org/help/feature/boxcat/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Addons
|
|
|
|
Here ima show how to install mods.
|
|
It's pretty simple, we're gonna take the mod from [here](https://gbatemp.net/threads/pokemon-mystery-dungeon-dx-60-fps-mod.559469/)
|
|
When you download the zip file you will have a folder called "exefs_patches".
|
|
Go inside that folder and in the other folder in there until you are at this file with an .IPS
|
|
|
|
<p> Then move that IPS file into exefs_patches and delete the now empty folder.
|
|
Then rename exefs_patches into exefs.
|
|
Now open yuzu and rightclick your game -> Open Mod Directory.
|
|
Create a new folder with any name you want and move the exefs folder into that, then restart yuzu and you're done.
|
|
You now see your mod at compatibility.
|
|
- Additional Note here:
|
|
If you got any other names for the folder don't rename it to exefs.
|
|
Instead rename them to romfs or romfs_ext.
|
|
|
|
You can completly skip these steps if you use mods from [here](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/wiki/Switch-Mods) or [here](https://yuzu-emu.org/game/)
