A community to discuss video game modding.


While video game modding is typically associated with PC gaming this community isn't limited to just that aspect. Things like source ports/game engine recreations, emulation and ROM hacks, and even modding games on console all are neat avenues for discussion!

I am thinking of playing Breath of the Wild on my PC with Cemu and was wondering if any mods or tweaks were worth trying.

I'm mostly looking at quality of life stuff.

I know Game Banana has a lot.

I didn't even know such a thing was possible. I wonder if there's a mod for additional weapons displays. Like a hall of weapons where you can display everything, and then you could gear up based on your plans for the day.

Or maybe I'm just itching to play Skyrim again...

Breath of the wild was available for emulation before the game even came out. There are hundreds of mods for it. It's basically the skyrim of Nintendo

I played it a couple years ago on cemu. Even just the basic quality of life mods are worth it. You don't even need to download anything, it's already in the settings.

Setting durability up a notch or two, but not too much, improves it a lot. I'd grab a HD texture pack.

That's all I've got, it's been a while.

Any texture pack recommendations?

Just see what looks better to you. I'd keep the cell shading though. I know there's a couple that turn that off, and it loses the charm.

See if you can run the switch emulator. Tears of the kingdom is a much better game in the long run. The story is horrible though.

I remember using a mod that adds Amibo items in chests around the world: [CW: Reddit link 🤓] https://www.reddit.com/r/CemuPiracy/comments/12avl4q/botw_amiibo_chests_mod_third_times_the_charm/
Seems like the modder has updated it since then.
