thanks for your helps !!

[Draco1962]

Please attach copies of your gameex.ini and log.txt files. If you are not certain where to find them, refer to this link:

hello to you Draco,
thank you for your intervention! 
I post the 2 requested files! I hope to find a solution!

GameEx.ini log.txt

[decadave972]

help , help , please !!!

[Draco1962]

Not sure if this is the solution but you will likely need to download the  Wii U database from here: 

 

Then you will go to Emulator Setup to map the Database Snap path (location where you store your database for GameEx Arcade) use the database and enable Use database names - all within the Setup Wizard.

hello Draco ! thank you for you quick intervention !

but this manipulation did not work for me!?

I send you 2 screens of the settings menu of the wii u emulator!
see if I made a mistake!?
thank you in advance....

[Draco1962]

Not sure why you are still showing ink instead of game names. You may need to dig into your GameEx path and delete any files with "cache" in the filename.

[decadave972]

hi ! sorry but i dont find this option in gameex !

can you say me where i can find it , please !

i have 11 emulator , and its this only wii u emulator which dont function !?

i dont understand nothing ! you think can you find a solution with me  ???

Anyway, thank you for your valuable help! see you soon maybe !

i hope .....

[Draco1962]

You have to look in the GameEx\DATA file names that contain the word cache in them and delete them.

[decadave972]

 

re: always the same removing the cache files in gameex\DATA!?
I despair .....?

What is the extension that shows for your Wii U files?

Are you able to launch and play them from CEMU directly?

[decadave972]

i trying launch a meta file in ".xml" in gameex but dont works !

[Draco1962]

You have to use .rpx files for cemu. How you obtain them I cannot help with but, if you do not have them in your roms path, then that could be the problem.

Were you able to launch and play a game on Cemu outside of GameEx Arcade? If not, figure that out first.

[decadave972]

hi Draco !

I can play all my games in ".rpx" format from the "Cemu" wii u emulator! 
they are well recognized and work perfectly !!!

[decadave972]

hi everybody !

i search somebody to help me !

coming help me please !!!

Please.........

@decadave972 Please do not PM forum members for troubleshooting help unless they ask you to. GameEx has always been about forum members helping others voluntarily. Sometimes forum help slows down during the holidays as well. You may have to be patient and occasionally nudge posts. Personally I have been away from the GameEx scene for a while due to 'real life' stuff, but I don't mind lending a hand if I have time. Either someone else or I will likely continue to help sort out your situation.

 

I am not familiar with Cemu or WiiU emulation, but I did a bit of searching today to help give you some direction.

Before talking about rpx files, I should mention that from what I have read, Cemu does support wux and wud files. You may want to test that out within Cemu in case you can use that format. I believe the configuration in GameEx for wux/wud will be very easy while rpx is more difficult...and mixing the two would even more difficult (or impossible).

If you want to move forward with troubleshooting the rpx setup, please do the following:

• Try running a WiiU game using GameEx and let it fail.
• Exit and close GameEx
• Post the log.txt file. Hopefully it captured something useful.
• Post the gameex.ini file

I know that you have posted these files before, but these updated examples will tell us what is happening now as you may have made changes to your setup since you posted them last.

Next, my understanding is that the directory structure for WiiU games using rpx is quite different from other games. There is a 'code' directory where the rpx file resides, I take it? Please provide a directory path to the rpx file of the WiiU game you attempted to run for the log file. For example, C:\Roms\WiiU\BreathOfTheWild\code\filename.rpx.

Also, if you look at other games using rpx, is the rpx file name always the same or is it sometimes different?

Thanks.

Update: helped this fella out. Eventual solution was by using .map files, not using the GE database, mapping .rpx romnames to gamenames, with scan subfolders set to true.

Good deal.

A member of the forum named "stigzler" helped me understand and solve my problem, 
you just have to edit the emulator's map file in the gameex\data folder, 
and locate the emulator number in setupwizard (configuration of the emulator) 
then in the ".map" file in question you rename the original name ".rpx" by the possible name of the wii u game! 
everything happens in the numbered map file of the wii u emulator!!! here are some screens! 
Use notepad++ for more facility to doing these change in file ".map"

Thanks to him , too strong the guy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
