emuiibo - MitM'ing NFP services for Amiibo emulation

Hi everyone!

I noticed there was a project called switch-nfp-mitm, which had lots of forks, but none of them properly working (people reported it barely worked, and with some games), thus I decided to try to fix it, or to improve it as much as I could. Well, the results were that good, that I've just managed to get it working perfectly, even with a nice system of combos for Amiibo swapping, in just 2 days.

So, well, here's the result:


emuiibo

emuiibo is a virtual amiibo (amiibo emulation) system for Nintendo Switch!

It consists on a background process (and service), which intercepts Nintendo Switch's internal NFC/NFP services to support virtual amiibo emulation, plus an overlay to easily control it.



Have fun playing around with custom virtual amiibos!

I'm using atmosphere and amiiswap. When emuiibo is off it says top right corner the selected amiibo. But if I go through any settings it says cant find amiibo. And if I activate emuiibo then it says its unsure if its active

Latest emuiibo version is not working with Amiiswap - you have to use emuiibo 0.2.1 to make it work.

Not updated for new emuiibo, downgrade if you want to use amiiswap.

Just got around to trying it out, I've tried your method several times still no luck. Thanks for trying to help.
fw 6.2 - ams 0.8.10 amiiswap + emuiibo 0.2.1
IMPORTANT : Diablo 3 latest update (v 2.6.5.58790)
works without any issues.

I've tried out emuiibo v0.3 but i can't get it to work at all anymore. I mean, the controller still lights up and responds to the button inputs, but even on Mario Odyssey, the game i've regularly and without difficulties used emuiibo v.1 andv.2 on, does not recognize amiibos anymore.
I've tried .bin amiibos, i've tried the new v.3 format, within the amiibo folder, within the emuiibo folder, within the game id folder, but whenever i hold the amiibo key in-game.... nothing happens.

When i'm in airplane mode, it doesn't give me an error, so i suppose the amiibo functionality is properly hijacked, but the amiibo reading just does not work and you eternally stare at the amiibo symbol floating in the middle of the screen.

Yes, but takes 5-20 minutes for the scan to go through.
Thanks. I was able to recognize one in the 0.3 version, but took a while.

BUT, with the change combo (r-sUP + dpad-LEFT), game still thinks that is the same amiibo.

Because TX is lazy. They don't even want to steal projects anymore. But anyway let me not derail this thread.

this does not work for me too, v 0.3 with or without amiiswap
amiiswap does not show single amiibo ( i added around 20 generated with the latest windows app ) also tried scanning my amibos ( added them with goldleaf), but none is shown in the amiiswap,
if I enable emulation with amiiswap app freezes and switch gets sloooow (uses a lot processing, I guess )
can someone make tutorial, maybe video how to properly set it up

what does this mean

"You also have to set the boot2 flag in the CFW's /titles directory: <cfw>/titles/0100000000000352/flags/boot2.flag."
I have the file in the Atmosphere/titles ... folder
do I need to point to it in the boot ini file ....?????


also tried it without amiiswap and could not get it to work ( press right stick, UP (DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT on the d-pad) ) the home button lights-up but nothing in zelda, mario ...

Just replace boot2.flag from amiibo files. It will ask you to replace atmosphere files, just click yes.

Amiiswap dont work wizh latest emuiibo. So please wait for update or use older ones.

Each homebrew needs to be recompiled because of the major changes of FW 9.0.0, that's the reason why you can't get it running. Wait for a new release!

That actually isn't the problem, emuiibo 0.3 is just not compatible with 9.0.0. Usually every major update, something about amiibo scanning changes in some way or fasion.

The temporary mitm would fix emuiibo if it was working properly.

Is there a pack anywhere that includes all the amiibo? Or is there a batch tool to do this? Or do I have to do each one individually? Thanks!
