Yuzu Toolbox

A simple toolkit to install/update yuzu early access builds in addition to backups and mod management. It is made in Godot 4 using C# and a bunch of open-source helper libraries. The program is entirely open source with a GPLv3 license. The source code is available here.

Features

• Cross platform (Windows and Linux)
• Updating with overwrites of previous versions
• Simple management tools such as clearing shader caches/install directory
• Shortcut creation and automatic unpacking
• Basic backup tool (allows save directory to be duplicated into another directory and then restored when desired)
• Mod management (downloading, installing, and updating mods from a variety of sources; ability to uninstall and detect manually installed mods)
• Auto updating upon launch

Usage

Simply launch the program and set your install location, then click download and wait for it to finish. Optionally, you can launch the program with --launcher after initially installing Yuzu to automatically check for updates (update if available) and then launch Yuzu closing itself, The recommended method of using this feature is to enable "Auto Updates" with "Create Shortcut" upon installation so the created shortcut leads back to the launcher with this flag.

For mod management, it is quite simple: double click to install or remove, and update selected/all to update your installed mods.

WARNING: Most banana mods are meant for the Nintendo Switch and NOT Yuzu, meaning they will not work if installed. Please do not make issues regarding this.
