August news (Patreon)

we want to share our plans for the upcoming Cemu update 1.9.1 with you.

Here is a list of all changes that will make it into 1.9.1:

• An optional second window which displays the GamePad screen
• Optimizations for the texture decoder (alleviates subtle micro-stutter)
• Improved texture readback (details below)
• Compatibility improvements (CoD Ghosts now playable)
• Minor audio bug fixes
• Recompiler bug fixes
• Further improvements to the vpad and padscore emulation

We can't give an exact release date yet, but as always you can expect the release later this month. Also keep in mind that the above list is only what we have been working on so far. There are still a handful of things left we want to look into.

Improved texture readback 

A while ago we already posted this video on Discord. It showcases the BotW camera rune working. We can now also confirm that this change fixes the following:

• Picto box in Wind Waker HD
• Save label screenshots in BotW
• Save label screenshots in Super Mario Maker

Recompiler fixes: Due to some of the recompiler optimizations in recent Cemu releases, the graphics in Trine 2 were broken. With 1.9.1 these problems are now resolved. The same bugs carried over to other games but we did not notice any apparent effect.
