- Again Huge thanks to the Guide Creator: Miguel92398, all credits go to him.
He also does Commissions, so maybe consider him if you want a mod to get made.
Another Huge Thanks to Zonic, that didn't only tell me why this method is better, but also contributed in the project with the HDR PC Netplay, I didn't show how to set it up (yet).

I don't indulge or encourage anyone to piracy, please get your dumps with a legal method. Don't ruin the fun of anyone participating, and make sure everyone is fine with mods used (especially when it is more than just cosmetics).
If you struggle with a part of this Tutorial, ask for help and I will try to help. - เกม
In case of it not working, please check the following things:
- Is your Yuzu up to date? (it can even say upto date, without it being. needs to be atleast version 1560 or higher)
- Is your Smash up to date? (13.0.2)[currently a bit problematic]
- does smash run without Arc?
- Does it work after clearing your yuzu folder?
- Is your Arc/SDMC in the Smash Properties activated?
P.s I showcased method 1 in this video, maybe method 2 will work out better for you : th-cam.com/video/MIHA8Yb50Fs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aCbw7HeBY_gQRra7
A lot of people can’t get the acropolis folder, please upvote for helping others:
Make sure SDMC is enabled by right clicking on smash and going into properties.
Make sure you are on the recent version of smash bros AND yuzu
(To check if you have the right version of smash, make sure you have the update file if you don’t. It’s 13.0.1. Click once on Smash in Yuzu, then go to file. Click install files to NAND. And then pick the update. You can also do this with DLC!)
This is what I had to do.
Thanks mate
things I already mentioned in my pinned Comment but sure
the reminder to install files to nand was a lifesaver man, thanks
I did all that but I still don't have the arcropolis folder
is it ok to use version 13.0.2 of smash for this?
Hey Everyone, Please Like this to make it more visible. If you are modding using Yuzu, The new update of ARCropolis no longer works with the current updated Yuzu version. Basically, you Either need to go back and reinstall both Yuzu amd Arcropolis to a previous version, or wait for the developers of ARCropolis to address the issue. Additionally, you would also need to be sure to download the newest 13.0.2 update for smash (and from what I can see it's pretty hard to find, I've yet to find one myself). but I believe once I do it may fix the issue.
what version of arcropolis work with the current yuzu? thank you
Where a link to the update file
Torrents
Fantastic, thank you.
I installed the training modpack a couple of weeks ago and my game started freezing, so I dismantled Yuzu and installed the modpack BEFORE any texture mods as is recommended. But then, Yuzu started ignoring my texture mods completely!
I went through this and realized I was missing the legacy discovery file. Now everything's running smoothly, you've been a big help!
thank you so much man, i dont have windows so i couldnt use ultimate mod manager and every time i needed help i was told to use it. thank you for this.
Thank you man! I was searching for these things to play mods on SSBU (I tried with UMM with no success), and damn... this one work! I appreciate your effort for making this video possible and many thanks!
I wish there was a way to add extra slots for some mods. If there isn't, it's ok.
Works perfect, thank you king.
THANKS A LOT, I LOVE YOU MAN!
omg it worked. i was having trouble trying to get the arc folder to create itself but i just needed to update smash
a tutorial I can understand for once, thank you.
THANK YOU I LOVE YOU!!!
thank you brother
you are lifesaver
thank you so much
Very good videoooooooooooo
OMG OMG THANK YOU NOW I CAN GET TO PLAY AS KIRBYPUFF
THANK YOU *
Tried with the latest version 13.02, it works, remember to remove special characters and space in the folder name of your mod, or it won't work.
I tried to play online with a mutual who also installed it we had the same mods and stuff but when we lauched it by joining a yuzu online server it crashed even thought it works offline for both of us , any solutions to make it work online ? (without parsec because it needs good wifi to work properly) .
it is not supported natively like that, take a look at zonic's hdr smash yuzu tutorial on TH-cam or under the post in the original gamebanana guide
danke man
What problems does the previous method have? Does it make some mods not work correctly? I had issues running some moveset mods (Old Bear New Tricks Side B was broken, alucard and sonic drop dash mods not working at all) and I had some other stuff not work (mods that change link's down b model don't change it), does this method fix issues like that or no?
sometimes it will fix the issue, but mostly problems come from new updates of acropolis and in that case the mod wouldn't work on a switch either, it depends, and sometimes it is hard to find out
As someone who used mods in Smash on Yuzu before the recent update, I’m gonna need a tutorial on how to uninstall the mods and fresh install the newly updated version for the new Smash update. I was using Yuzu EA 4002 with the previous version just fine, then I got Yuzu EA 4176 just before it was taken down. And I’ve yet to update Smash because of issues with mods, though I have the new update file on my computer if needed, but future mods need the new version and I hope someone mods in Rocko from Rocko’s Modern Life.
it's as easy as dragging the mods out the folder
good video can u make a video on how to makle ultimate S mod work on yuzu cuz ive been struggling with that
just follow the readme provided in ultimate s, your sd card would be the yuzu folder in this case
Could you make a tutorial on how to add new characters in Yuzu?
adding new characters work the same as it would work on the switch, no need to make a new tutorial for that.
Theres a new version of the game, the version 13.0.2, this means the newest arcropolis won't work so you should download an older version if you're on 13.0.1
Tried this and it created the acropolis folder finally but now yuzu is stuck at launching
@@Ghost18921 what version of yuzu are you on
@@chanchowaton got a update file and used the new version of acropolis and it worked
@@Ghost18921 yeah, i forgot to say using a newer version of yuzu also breaks it most of the time because its made to be more compatible with 13.0.2, have fun with the modding
@@chanchowatonhow do you downgrade yuzu? I accidentally updated it and it’s now stuck on the loading screen. Did everything I could and checked everywhere for an answer and I just really assumed it’s cause I updated the yuzu. Before that all my mods were working perfectly fine
thank you for the video, I just have one more question, do you know if we can add custom music on yuzu ?
defintly, there are even music packs on gamebanana, you can search for a guide on how to create a music guide online
is there any way to use local mod (for online playing with yuzu) using arcropolis? Looks like skyline disables local functions.
yes take a look at the original guide in the description, it mentions something
This worked great with Yuzu EA version 4176 and firmware 17.0.1. You will also need Ultimate 13.0.2 update patch. I have about 85 mods installed and have not had any issues.
it made me update to newest arcropolis and 13.0.2 and now it is stuck on launching
that's because your version of yuzu is bricking your 13.0.1 smash update, same thing happens to me. so either update your smash (the move set mods won't work but the skin mods still do) or use a older version of yuzu
im trying to generate the acropolis folder in C:\Users\pc\AppData\Roaming\yuzu\sdmc\ultimate , but everytime i run smash it loads but when i stop the emulation the acropolis folder is not there, ive checked the smash version which is 13.0.1, my yuzu version is [1647] and disable applet is checked, i don't know what to do anymore hope for a response
clean install your Yuzu folder and retry it
@@Timerin Ive done a clean install of yuzu now and deleted the original yuzu folders in local and roaming yet the folder doesn't generate, im using the exact yuzu verison of yours, and the acropolis folder doesnt generate, i see the comments in your video and you say "-Is your sdmc in the smash properties activated" what do you mean by that because i might try it. also smash does run without arc folder i put in load with skyline and ARCropolis
@@ItzPeople my bad, about the SDMC, that's how it is called on the other tutorial, in this one, if you rightclick smash, under Properties you find a Arc setting! It needs to be activated
@@Timerin omg thanks that fixed the issue!! :D
for anyone in the future - the legacy_discovery file is just a blank file. to create it yourself, you can create legacy_discovery.txt and then just delete the .txt
for that you also need to activate the viewability of the extension names, as it is not on by default, I found it easier to just link it as a file, and incase you say the link is broken, only the alternative link is broken right now. the original still works
Could you make a tutorial on how make Single Slot Effects work on Yuzu? Since Yuzu now supports ARCropolis
it would be the same way as you would do on a switch, yuzu emulates the folder structure too from the switch, so watching a tutorial meant for the switch will do
Do you know how to get music mods working? I can’t seem to get them working. I have placed them in the mods folder but yuzu doesn’t seem to recognize the music mod.
like every other mod, make sure the folder structure is correct
you can even lookup a non PC tutorial for it
Hey, I am able to generate the Arcropolis folder but the mods do not show up in the game. I have followed all the steps and the mods I am using I know work because I have been able to use them before.
is your yuzu up to date and the mods installed correctly?
(please check yuzu version in the info and make sure it is the same or later then the version in my pinned comment)
Smash is crashing whenever I try to load it
"Make sure you update yuzu" ah yeah right...i cant do that anymore. thanks nintendo
there are ways to get an older version of yuzu though, the make sure to update yuzu was specifically mentioned towards people who had yuzu for a long time but didn't update it manually yet
For some reason, I can't play online anymore (i only use skin mods). When i enter local multiplayer in smash ultimate, the game fades to black and i fall back to the main menu. Is it a glitch with Arcropolis ? how am i supposed to play online by now ?
online is not supposed to work, you can only play with others that have installed the same mods by installing the hdr in the original guide in the description.
also when it comes to playing with friends, parsec works
@@Timerin oh okay mb, that's too bad cosmetic mods do prevent Yuzu online to work tho, the opponent should not need to have the same textures for the multiplayer mode to work ;-; ty for the fast reply tho ! :3
@@Crowned_ happened to be awake,have fun modding
@@Timerin bahaha modding night x)
Is it normal for the game to stutter so much with mods enabled? Is there some kind of workaround? Its definitely playable, but noticeably less smooth than not playing with mods.
when using alot of mods, the character selection being laggy can be normal, but lags ingame shouldn't happen, after all shaders got compiled (you can see it on the bottom left) if it lags with all shaders compiled, then it can depend on multiple factors
@@Timerin I've pretty much completely finished building shaders for the game, as I've been playing it for months, not to mention the game runs well without the mods enabled. I've read online that the culprit could be the Nro. files because they don't have shaders or something like that, but I don't know exactly how that works. What do you suggest? I can remove all the mods I currently have on, but keep sdmc enabled in properties, but I have a feeling it will still occasionally come stutter...
@@TrueXTrickster first of all, what are your video settings? are you using Vulkan instead of OpenGl
@@Timerin Yes. I'm using Vulkan on Normal
@@TrueXTrickster then put it one above normal (don't know how it was called out of the head)
I stuck loading Arc and Update XCI format but Is stuck and never give the folders numbers
check pinned comment
i have a problem where if i download 13.0.1 and import it to my ssbu, im in an infinite launching screen
clear yuzu folder in appdata
it worked (with yuzu 1717 and smash 13.0.2) but then it just stopped working, the game loads fine but the mods simply are not showing. Tried de- and activating the smdc and going back to version 13.0.1 and nothing worked.
i would wait till the yuzu and acropolis team worked on a fix
Same here bro I’m in the same situation
For some reason it is not installing the ARCropolis file? What should I do ?
do you mean install or download? incase of installing check the pinned comment.
incase of downloading, I'm unsure, maybe check your network, try an older version etc
i cant find a 13.0.1 file with the dlcs i waited 2 hours for one rom to install and it didnt work i tried looking but i cant find it.
it should be an update file, not a dlc file, and mostly the first Google search will already help out.
i was wondering, i started the game once and it worked but then i tried later and the game did not load (infinite yuzu loading screen) why is that?
i have the latest EA version
13.0.1 smash
all mods are compatible as again, they did work once but then it stopped loading the game
smash does work without the mods, and i did clear yuzu folder a few times
13.0.2 is the newest current version
@@Timerin it isn't mod compatible yet or is it?
@@chanchowaton I don't know, just test it out
@@Timerin i just had to update yuzu (again idk why) and it worked thanks though
mines stopped randomly working so i reset my yuzu clean. now i can't get the arcropolis folder to show up. i'm thinking two things:
the new updated arcropolis doesn't support the old 13.1 update
the new yuzu version broke arc?
Any ideas?
yeah, seems like you need to update your game to 13.2
@@Timerin would that break my previous mods? they were just skins, also does that mean i have to wait for smash line to be updated as well?
@@keiko228 that depends, just testing it out should do the job though
Hello so I downloaded a moveset mod which it says it has a additional slot do i have to unlock it like anyother character?
no, it should be inside the moment you unlocked the character it is based on
P.s you can generally look at switch tutorials for thoose kind of mods
Hey i downloaded a mod and on strart up its saying "during file discovery, ARCropolics encountered file conflicts" btw this is my only mod can you help me fix this
unfortunaly never heard of that error before, try out a different mod to see if it may just be the mod causing the error
Same bro
@@rza827 looks like this is becoming a common issue in that case, haven't had it myself, so i would recommend trying an older version of the arc files
@@Timerin thanks bro, it worked
After putting a mod in to a folder and installing all its dependencies the game goes straight to a black screen after the first load.
I am trying to play the Ninten mod, that is all
It even does this with just a skin mod installed. Method two dosn't work either
that is odd, could you tell me some specifics like the yuzu version you are using, and which dependencies?
I had issues like that once myself, and I think in that case it was an dependency messing the rest up, sorry for the late replay TH-cam turned off notifications on its own.
Updated to update 13.0.2 and acropolis does not work for this update for some reason need help
you need to download 13.0.1 still, as acropolis didn't get ported to the newest version yet
@@Timerin i tried it says "Acropolis cannot currently run on a smash version other then 13.0.2, co sidering updating your game or unistalling acropolis" please help i have no idea how to downgrade acropolis
@@Timerinnevermind all i had to do was deny the update for acropolis by clicking "later"
R.I.P YUZU is no longer my friend
when i try to load into smash bros after installing a moveset my game gets stuck on launching, did i do something wrong? is there a way to fix this?
do other mods work? and do you have the required dependencies?
skin mods work but when i try to install a moveset mod it does an infinite launching screen, i think i installed the dependencies @@Timerin
@@AWobblyBike some mods simply don't work because of the mod not being updated, maybe try another movement mod first
Do you know if Extra Slot mods work on Yuzu?
I think it does, but I personally wasn't able to set it up, could be I just did it wrong in general though.
so trial and error, following a tutorial meant for switch will work for you too as yuzus folder structure is meant to emulate the one of a switch, especially since SDMC emulates the sd card slot
@@Timerin Ah ok. I was asking because I've had no luck whatsoever with the extra slots.
bonjouir quand je mets le fichier legacy discovery à l'endroit indiquer le jeux charge à l'infinie j'ai la dernière version de yuzu et de SSBU j'ai tout les fichier et dossier et j'ai réinstaller yuzu et refait tout le tuto que faire ?
I'm sorry , i cannot speak french, so i can only answere you in english!
in your yuzu folder, clear it out like shown in the video
Weon Graciasss, vi muchos tutoriales en mi idioma pero ninguno sirvió Thanks!!!
So I did everything correctly and even had a fresh Yuzu install. However, whenever I activate SDMC in the properties, the game is stuck on the "Launching" screen, no matter how long I wait, the game won't load.
clear your yuzu folder like mentioned in the pinned comment
@@Timerin Do I have to clear something specific? How do I know if the yuzu folder is cleared of everthing?
@@Timerin Should I delete the config and keys folder?
simply open the yuzu folder like shown in the step called: "clean install yuzu" and delete all folders besides of your keys and config folder@@cronaxblade
@@cronaxblade no, thoose are the ones you wanna keep
for some reason everytime i try to load it its stuck on the yuzu loading screen
most likely UMM files interacting and hindering the start, just clear your yuzu folder like mentioned in the beginning of the video and redo the steps
@@Timerin what folders do i clear?
@@OneLuckyUser15 the yuzu folder that opens when you open the yuzu folder from the files drop down menu
@@OneLuckyUser15 the yuzu folder that opens when you open the yuzu folder from the files drop down menu
I am missing the atmosphere folder in my yuzu?
then something went wrong, look at my pinned comment, and make sure everything is correct. if everything is correct there, and it still doesn't work, then make sure you did every step correctly.
if all of thoose things don't work, add me on discord and i will take a look with you: timerin
How do I play with mods online though with other Yuzu players ?
if you go into the guide link in my description, it mentions the how to
You need smash 13.0.2 version for the acropolis folder to appears.
i have it updated but they still wont appear
check my pinned Comment
Please why my game is so fastttttt i put a mod 30 fps but it not working
did you also activate that mod? and check your yuzu settings, there is a option called vsync mode in graphic settings, I personally have it on fifo (vsync on)
I did everything right. I even updated yuzu and it just wont make acropolis folder...
clear out your yuzu folder and follow the pinned comment, trust me when I say it always is human error when that happens. not an personal attack or anything, most likely just old files going against acropolis
@@TimerinDont worry. I am actually very appreciative for the advice thank you!
Hello do u have any idea how to install smashline 2?
the same way you would on a switch, so you can use a smashline 2 installation tutorial that was originally made for the switch
O wow so quick thx btw
How do you put custom music with this method?
just like every other mod
@@Timerin I tried but it doesn't seem to be working :(
The link for skyline is broken :(
it's not broken, but the current version of skyline just doesn't work anymore thanks to the newest updates on smash, it needs to be remade so it works again, just give it time
Im using a more recent version of Yuzu than shown in this video, and I still cant get the arcopolis folder to show up :(
Edit: Nevermind, turns out the update it had was a fake 3.0.1, just had to update it with a different file and it worked :)
sounds like your Smash isn't up to date! make sure you have the latest smash update installed, it is 13.0.1
TYSM
wait, only smash mods are in the computer?
what?
I’m stuck in lauching after doing all the steps can anyone help me pls
refer to my pinned comment, most of the time being stuck is the indicator of not having smash up to date
is there any cheats that can be used online?
if you mean any mod that gives you a competitive advantage, without giving the same advantage to your opponent? no. and i also don't condone cheating in general.
if you mean something like a save file so you already have your characters unlocked, yes.
Will this work for Ultimate S?
if ultimate s is a modpack then it should work
When I start the game with SDMC enabled, the game starts to start forever, is there a way to fix it?
yes, check my pinned Comment, probably is the step where you need to clear out your yuzu folder
The game version, Yuzu version is the latest. It starts even if arc is disabled.
What is clearing the yuzu folder?
@@Unko-buribuributitititiburibucheck my 2nd timestemp called clean install yuzu
as an addition incase I forgot to explain it, all folders not named in that step, should be deleted, then open yuzu up again so it can regenerate the folders
@@Timerin
So should I download yuzu again?
And if I want to remove a mod without deleting it, how can I do it? Do I have to remove the mod from the folder or what can I do?
Yeah basically, the thing that I did, is inside the ultimate folder, create a backup folder and drag the mods I currently not use in there
Where can you download smash bros ultimate?
That is not something I can disclose in this comment section, tho a Google search should be all you need to find it.
@@Timerin yeah your right.
pleaSE update link
there are 2 links, make sure you use the correct one
just did a completely fresh install deleted yuzu appliication and the yuzu folder in %appdata%
oaming and am getting no arcropolis folder in my ultimate folder. how strange.
is your Smash up to date? it needs to be of the version 13.0.1
Yep game is up to date and eveything else is as well, I've tried both methods with no avail might just have to stick to ryujinx:(@@Timerin
I wouldn't give up so soon, we can troubleshoot it together mate, just add me on discord: Timerin
same it is not there@@Timerin
@@isaiahgamer470 im this cays it was yuzu not being up to date, go through the checklist I made and marked in the comments, and if it doesn't help, add me.on discord
Do you have to have a computer? :(
when it comes to emulation, on a laptop it can work too, as long as it can handle smash without mods too, on android/ios devices it won't work, and in case of a switch, if your switch is moddable, then of course you can do it on your switch too.
Hope that clarifys your question, if not, please elaborate

So to clarify on my android i can use mods?@Timerin

how to get 13.0.2 update some help.
.
the same way you got the game, either through not so legal ways, or by updating your game on your switch and then bringing it to your pc
@@Timerin the website i use to update doesnt have 13.0.2 do u have any?
@@louiwaz8821 I have a legal copy of smash, that's why I can update it, but I'm unable to provide a link or similar for legal reasons, my hint would be looking for other websites too
@@Timerin i bought it on my nintendo switch so is that like legal?
@@louiwaz8821 it's only legal if you use your own copy, using pirated downloads. always come with their risks for a reason, to say it outright, it's not a big problem if you pirate it even if you don't own it, but Nintendo is pretty strict at the persue of Internet pirates (uploaders) that's why I can't provide much more details
to get the update from your switch you would need a modded switch, if you don't have that, don't bother about thinking to get it from there, and search online
omg it worked. i was having trouble trying to get the arc folder to create itself but i just needed to update smash
sounds great, I really should update this tutorial though, as it's not as easy anymore.
