Emulation Cemu won’t load game

[AndrewD]

I’ve just downloaded cemu 1.15.10 and cemuhook for the first time.

I’ve dumped super mario 3d world and the legend of zelda the wind waker from my wii u and they both contain 3 folders: code (containing the .rpx file), content and save (Both games are around 1.6GB). Neither show up on cemu when i select the game path, but wind waker does load from the file menu. However super mario 3d world doesn’t load; the window turns grey for a second and then cemu crashes.

I’ve been looking around online and people are talking about the meta file but I don’t have one. When I load wind waker it does say at the top “/meta/ directory missing in game dump”, but seems to work anyway. Could this be the problem?

Thanks.

Edit: It seems the program I used to dump my files only dumped the code, content and save folder, so I will dump the meta folder individually and see how that gets on.

I'll use this thread to ask my question since cemu is giving me headaches now.
I had mario kart 8 and pokken tournament installed, and i wanted to change the name of the .RPX of the latter so it would show up correctly on my frontend.
THAT RUINED EVERYTHING. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling games, changing rom folder, installing a new version of cemu, and nothing seems to work. They keep saying "unable to open file". Yet... they run on the frontend (attract mode, in case that matters).

My problem is, with things this way, i don't how, if possible, to install mario kart 8 DLC.
I don't mind losing my saves, i'd nuke everything and start from scratch even redownloading the games, but please tell me how to fix this crap, do the installs make some sort of registry that i should delete? perhaps some %appdata% folder? because it makes no sense to me anymore
