Uhh, because Cemu isn't 100% accurate? Like, nowhere near?

why would you use Cemu

United States

the point is emulator just isn't accepted very well in ¤most¤ speedrun communities. if you wanna run, get the fucking console. i've seen way too many of your "emulator this" and "emulator that" arguments and i'm sick of it. arguing to make it legal is only gonna make people not like you. so shut up and find another fucking hobby if you can't fucking run on console

I think you have a point but I'm not sure you'll be able to convince the mods

We have no plans on allowing emulator any time soon

Cemu wasn't made (or at least isn't ready) for speedruns. I know for a fact botw physics are really buggy, and who knows what weird speed boosts cemu might give you. Maybe emu will be allowed when the emulators become more accurate, but for now cemu just can't be trusted for speedrunning.

can't you set it to hide emu by default

The emulator is very accurate 1 year later and it runs perfectly at 60 FPS for this game at least, except for some textures rendering problems. No reason to not accept it now.

By the way i don't see how this would be less legit than the hundred of people who submit runs without video proof on this leaderboard, hum.

Ill accept emu runs but they'll have to be accompanied with video proof

it's a lot easier to record with an emulator for one thing

cemu isnt as optimized compared to something like dolphin.
