Welcome, players! This page will walk you through all the steps to setting up BotW to play with mods. There are three different ways to do this:
- Playing on the Wii U console
- Using the Wii U emulator Cemu on your computer
- Playing on the Switch console.
All Wii U mods should work on both the console and Cemu, but most Switch mods have format differences and aren't cross-compatible with the Wii U version of the game. In addition, many mods are only compatible with the latest 1.5.0 version of BotW.
Wii U Console
Setting up homebrew
Follow this guide to set up your Wii U console to use homebrew software.
Setting up SDCafiine
SDCafiine is a Wii U homebrew program that will load modded game files from your SD card.
- Download the latest stable release of SDCafiine (not a "nightly" version) from here.
- Extract the contents of the .zip into the root of your SD card.
- Create a new folder in the root of your SD Card, named
sdcafiine
. - Within that folder, create a new folder with the name of your game's Title ID. The JP version of BotW uses
00050000101C9300
, the US version uses00050000101C9400
, and the EU version uses00050000101C9500
. - Within that folder, you can create any number of folders named after the mods you want to use. When you boot the game, a menu will appear allowing you to select one to use.
- Inside each of those folders, create a folder named
content
. Your mod files will go in here. (Mods will often include acontent
folder already to make things clear.)
To use mods, you just need to select the SDCafiine option from the Homebrew Launcher, then boot your game immediately afterwards.
Cemu Emulator
Setting up homebrew
Follow this guide to set up your Wii U console to use homebrew software.
Dumping the game files
To play BotW on Cemu, you'll need to dump the game files from the console to your computer. Then run the U-King.rpx
file from Cemu to boot the game.
This method works as of Cemu 1.15.1.
- Create a new folder inside
Cemu/graphicPack
named after the mod you want to use. - Inside that folder, create a folder named
content
. Your mod files will go in here. (Mods will often include acontent
folder already to make things clear.) - Create a file named
rules.txt
next to thecontent
folder (if the downloaded mod doesn't already include one). Inside it goes:

version = 3
fsPriority = 100
version must be set to 3 to work correctly. fsPriority determines the order in which mods are prioritized - higher numbers prioritize that mod's files. Mods without an fsPriority entry specified default to 100.
