# Cemu graphic packs not working — how to install and enable 4K, 60fps, and graphics mods for Wii U games

Cemu Graphic Packs are community-made mods that unlock higher resolutions (up to 8K), frame-rate caps (30fps → 60fps for BotW and other titles), shadow quality improvements, aspect ratio adjustments, and other visual enhancements for Wii U games. They are safe and widely used — the most popular is the Breath of the Wild 60fps + 4K resolution pack, used by the majority of Cemu players.

Graphic Packs work through Cemu's built-in mod loader and require no third-party tools. Common reasons they do not activate:

  Graphic Packs database not downloaded — Cemu does not ship with packs; you must download the community database through Cemu's built-in downloader or the official GitHub.
  Pack not enabled in the Graphic Packs menu — each pack must be individually toggled on; they are all off by default.
  Wrong game version or Title ID — some packs target a specific game update version. An out-of-date or non-standard game dump may not match.
  Resolution pack conflicts with Cemu's internal resolution — the in-game resolution pack and Cemu's own "Render resolution" setting can conflict if both are set.
